So, I’m setting off in a few days for an extended ride en France. For better or worse, I’ve decided to take my old Saunders Space Packer Plus. It’s still in great nick, and I’ve re-proofed it with Fabsil, just in case. The thing is, there’s a patch of mould that has got into the bottom of the inner, the result of which is a pervading musty smell. After consulting Google, I decided that the thing to do was to give it a scrubbing with white vinegar. No problem (or at least, not yet). Apart from the fact that the musty smell remains.
My question is as follows: (1a) can I run the inner through the washing machine? (1b) Would that get rid of the musty smell? Further: (2) although I’ll be using a groundsheet underneath, should I give the bottom of the inner tent a dose of Fabsil as well?
TIA
