Apologies if you have seen the below, but it is a bit lost in an old thread, so thought I'd start a fresh one. Thanks for the comments received on other thread.

Thanks to Billy, I managed to erect the Aspen for the 1st time yesterday (with the very able help of my OH).

We got it up up (ooh err) in just about 1 hour and it took about 40 mins to pack away.

We were very pleased with ourselves, but as stated by others... I would not have like to have tried it without seeing the video 1st!

Generally we are pleased with the tent, the only issue is that there is mildew patches in and around the inner tent.

Any advice on how to remove it without damaging the fabric would be appreciated.

I found the below on the net, any comments?

To remove mould or mildew, make a 5% solution of hydrogen peroxide. (125ml in 5 litres of water.) Sponge the solution on and, when the mould is gone, rinse off and wash the tent

Thanks

You cant actually get rid of mould spots but you can stop it from spreading. That is where the H2O2 comes in

Leave the solution on for about 30 minutes then rinse if off with clean water and let it dry.

Spray a solution of 1 part Milton to 10 parts water.

It will kill off the mildrew and mould but will not get rid of the marks I am afraid

Thanks everyone,

I'll try a small area first then see how it goes.
