I have used Simple Green in a Bissell Little Green Machine on mine with good results.

When we bought our 22’ Safari Sport it had a few serious spots/areas of dark stain which I first thought looked like where the aluminum table trim had “smudged” against it…. but I later decided was maybe mold from condensation on the interior walls. As I looked around the walls and ceiling I found other places also. I had no faith in getting it clean.

But I remembered a product I’d used on some aircraft carpet and tried it on the mouse fur and it worked beautifully.

It is “Spot Shot” and comes in an aerosol can. I used my wet/dry shop vac hard-nozzle and, as I sprayed the spot generously with the Spot Shot…I followed along immediately with the vac sucking up the aerosol almost as soon as it soaked the fabric. VOILA!

Sold at WalMart, Amazon, etc.

I used Foley carpet spot remover and a Little Green Machine to clean the mouse fur. It did a great job.

First I used the machine to run warm water through the fur to get the initial dirt out and to moisten the fur, then spray with the Foley. After letting it sit for a few I used a soft sponge to sort of scrub the fur, then hit it again with the machine to extract the cleaning solution and the moisture.

Great ideas, thanks!

A recent thread saying that Simple Green causes corrosion of aluminum.

I recently had to deal with a mold issue on an upholstered, foam-backed wall and some wood framing, and it's not as difficult as I feared during my initial panic.

Plain ol' white vinegar kills mold, so I sprayed the area generously. Afterward, I hit it with a steamer, which removed the staining, much like a carpet cleaner would. Once I was satisfied that the mold was dead and gone, I ran a fan for several hours to make sure the area was completely dry.

By that point, the vinegar smell had reduced to the point that we barely noticed it and within a day or two it was completely gone. So, you don't have to worry about your camper smelling like a salad.
