Hello All,

Had our Montana 6P carpet 2 years now (used 6 times) time to give it a bit of a clean as it has one or two marks. Its the green and white stripy kind before they started using the Outwell logo. Just got some Vanish, will this be ok in cleaning it?

Many thanks

In that case , I would take it easy whatever you use, test a section and maybe just wipe it over let it dry and see if its made a difference. Use a micro fibre cloth rather than brush.

My carpet goes back to 2007 iirc, I use a pressure washer on it on the washing line. Green tartan not everyone's choice though lol

I'm sure you'll get a decent result. Though I might have started with good old Stardrops .

Ps my rant is this. If it ain't broke don't fix it... Followed by .. If you reduce the quality the price should head in the same direction.

So they used the same design with the green stripey pattern but changed the quality? Strange, i thought the mocha design came with the change.

I understand the Outwell carpets were quite good quality fleece until the end of 2011. In 2012 this changed to little more then a picnic carpet with pvc backing even though it was same pattern. In 2013 it changed its pattern to the Outwell logo but was same inferior quality.

Our outwell 'carpet' came yesterday. Picnic blanket is about right. I'd send it back if we hadn't got a 'package deal' with the footprint. Shocking considering the effort they put into their tents.
