I have tried everything on mine and nothing has worked yet.

Sorry.

what's it made of

CarGirl · 18/04/2009 16:31

bleach will work but if it's cotton will fade

not sure what it's made of, tbh - is a quinny buggy, kind of coloured waterproof canvas?

the zapp, think it is synthetic I would colour test a small patch where you can't really see. Dettol mould & mildew remover is great you must rinse it very very very well afterwards though.

bleach didn't work on mine.

Haven't tried the dettol stuff though, thanks for that.

I have a quinny freestyle, so it's probably a similar fabric. Tried all sorts of stain removers but the only thing that worked was elbow grease - scrub scrub scrub for a VERY long time with a nail brush and good quality washing up liquid.
