Can anyone recommend the best way of cleaning off mould spots on the sleeping pods of a outwell nevada m as this would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Try this:

Removing Mould and Mildew

Clothing and Fabrics - tackle mildew as soon as you discover it. Try to brush off as much as possible (outdoors so that you do not spread more spores through the house) and if spots still remain, wash them once with detergent and water, then dry in the sun. If the stain remains, moisten with some lemon juice and then spread with salt and leave in the sun to dry, before rinsing thoroughly. Alternatively, you can use chlorine bleach: 2 tbsp of liquid bleach mixed with one quart of warm water and then sponged onto the stain or even soak the stained area in the solution. Leave it for 5-15 minutes before rinsing. Remember to always check colour-fastness and never use chlorine bleach on silk or wool.

We have the same tent and found after our first outing we sufferd mould. We got Milton fluid (babies sterilising fluid) diluted 20ml to 200ml of water and wiped over the mould until it went away. we then rinsed/wiped with clean water and allowed the tent to dry completely.

hope this helps
