Check what the tent fabric composition is, then have a look at the various domestic cleaning agents - the ones for cleaning shower curtains. Providing the mold has not 'eaten' in the fabric's integrity, it is only a surface affect, I think you should be ok. | |||

if the fabric is bleach safe use a solution of 1.5-2 oz of bleach to a gallon of water and scrub. Rinse well. Howard Moses Lake, Washington USA hwhomes@outlook.com | |||

Simple Green is the best cleaner I've ever used. Might give it a try. | |||

Don't use bleach. I use to work at Cabela's and I've seen what happens when these tents are put away wet. There is a better way to clean them. McNett Corporation makes a product called Myrazyme, an enzyme based cleaner. Works really well on mold/mildew and a lot of other things, pet stains, spillled milk, stinky waders etc. You just dillute with water and dump/spray/wipe it on, and let it do its thing, no rinsing or anything. You can get it at just about any scuba shop, or find a place that sells it at mcnett.com. | |||

A 50/50 mixture of water and vinegar will neutralize the mold, then use something like Dow Scrubbing bubbles bathroom cleaner. I used this to clean the inside of my Jeep softtop. Wherever you go, there you are! | |||
