Removing mold from a Tent Trailers vinyl fabric
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- I found Starbrite removed the mildew and mold from my tent trailer's bunk ends (interior vinyl fabric). I don't work for or have any association with the company but was impressed enough with the product to do this video. The product (Starbrite) met my expectations and gave me the mold free results I was looking for. Starbrite is an American company, but they do sell it here in Canada at some retail stores ( e.g. Canadian Tire). Take note, you may also need to purchase a cover sheet to protect the areas where the spray is to be applied. The tutorial shows my steps taken from start to finish.
I'm super happy that I found your video. I'd tried just about every mildew/mold removing product that I could find, but, none of them made a dent in the light stains we had at one end of our Jayco 1007. Then I tried the Starbrite product. It worked like a charm. Took less than half an hour to bring the trailer back to 'like new' condition. Thanks a lot for the info.
Makes it all worth it to get a nice comment like this. Thank you for responding : o )
Best video on you tube for Canadians trying to clean campers! Thankyou sir!
It makes it all worth the time effort putting a video together like this to receive such positive feedback. Thank you.
Brian thanks for your videos. Love your channel and how random it is. This video helped me with mildew in a pop-up camper. Keep on posting all those things that strike your fancy.
That's very kind of you Jonathan to take the time to validate the video work I do . It makes it all worth it when I receive a comment like this. Thank you : o )
Cannot thank you enough for this video. Had a leak over the winter and some heavily mold caked canvas on set up this year. Star bright ate right through it and the canvas looks better than it ever has!
Thank you Aaron for your feedback. I know that feeling, and how it feels to be relieved when a solution is found.
I have a 2005 pop-up several times I’ve clean mold out of it lotta work he thinks somebody at the camper place would see this problem and come up with a repair so it wouldn’t happen I had an old 1974 pop up and it never molded once in the 30 years I owned it thanks for doing the video
Before doing this video, it appeared to be a limited field of discovery for trailer mold solutions on You Tube. Many of the videos I watched didn't seem to answer my questions or provide me (the Great White North Canadian) with alternative products that could be purchased in Canada. This video was my way of paying it forward to others with the same trailer mold issues. Thanks for your comment Eric :)
Hi, We really want to thanky you.
This product remove mildew for more then 10 year accumulated.
My wife is amazed of the result, because we tried multiple VR product and she was sure this Starbrite was another lost of time.
So we call this kind of result an home run.
The result increase the value of our VR.
Thank for all detail in your video as to use sponge
Sorry for english Wright en because I’m french canadien.
You really help us
Glad I could help, and a big thanks for your validation. 😃
Thanks for a well made presentation and important info for pop-up owners!!!!
Thank you for taking the time to validate : o )
Thank you for this well explained video. Very helpful. Nice to see the Canadian product equivalent to miracle mist. Thank you also for explaining there is no need to waterproof the inside material.
What a nice compliment! As I'm sure you found; it brought to me a renewed inspiration for spending time in my trailer. A mold's lurking presence will continue if it's not dealt with. I'm so glad to hear that it helped : o )
Wow!!! We bought a trailer back in May and have really noticed the mildew on our last few camping trips despite the fact that we air it out after every trip. I heard about miracle mist and was disappointed we couldn’t get it in Canada and came across your video. What a lifesaver! The canvas looks perfect! Thank you so, so much. Starbrite for the win!!
Thank you! It made the effort for this video so much more validating when I get encouraging feedback such as this..
between the video and you, you just convinced me to get it.
Great video! Fellow Canadian here so I appreciate the relevant information. Thank you! Can't wait to clean my canvas (well, sort of - ha ha).
Let it me know how it turns out. : o )
Thanks so much for taking the time to create this video for Canadians. I was gutted when I popped open our tent trailer and saw the mold & mildew. I picked up some Starbrite yesterday so am going to try and tackle this afternoon
I know just how you felt. When my wife and I would go camping, we of course slept in the bunk end, and in the morning while still in bed, we would always look up on the ceiling and see the mold. The mold seemed to get worse as time went by and eventually started to migrate across the vinyl. I'm just glad it's cleaned up. Thanks for your validation Kari : o )
@@brianarsenault9281 I just finished one side and it is almost entirely gone 😭❤️😭
Thank you so so much.
@@karirowley2685 I know that feeling and it makes me happy to see that its worked out for you. Thanks for letting me know Kari.
Absolutely amazing!!! Thank you soooo much for your video. I followed your instructions and AMAZING RESULTS!!! I was incredibly discouraged and THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for taking the time to validate this video. Your encouraging words make a difference to whoever reads your comment.
Will definitely be trying this product. We've had the same mold stains for a while now. Tried many treatments and cleaners but the stains have remained. This looks extremely promising, thanks.
Thanking you for your comment.
I have a Flagstaff that has mold and mildew stains. Thank you for posting this and posting the label 😁 It is so hard to find the labels online and going to the store isn’t always feasible.
I had the same problem and it was frustrating. Glad to see that this helped you out Tristen : o )
Thank-you from northern Canada 🇨🇦

Thanks for great explanation .
Very kind of you to take the time to validate. : o )

When putting a tutorial together, the delivery or explanation is the most important part. Thank you Yecenia for validating that. : o )
Very helpful video thank you!
It makes it worth while when you get a nice comment like this. Thanks Charlie for the validation : o )
Thank you.
I appreciate your validation : o )
Thank you for sharing this video! We have tried another brand and it did nothing! We are going to try this product.
Thanks for your comment. Let me know how it works out : o )
@@brianarsenault9281 it worked!! So thankful for the information.
@@rebeckaevans1225 I as well wasn't sure how to deal with the mold, until I stumbled on the information shared in the video. So glad to hear that the video helped you : o )
picking some of this up tmr, I was going to buy some of that American product and ship it to Toronto where I live but it was going to be 60$+. I hope it works for me!
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. I've had a lot of response to this tutorial and it's all been very positive.
great video....thanks from Moncton NB
Thank you, appreciate you taking the time to validate : o )
Spray nine is a great cleaner.
The concern I would have; spray 9 wasn't specifically designed with canvas/vinyl in mind, which may suggest chemicals in its contents that maybe too aggressive.
Perfect
Your reply Perfect, sums it up very nicely, meaning the problem of mold is gone. Thank you for the comment : o )
Thanks for this video!! Much appreciated. Can you tell me if the cleaning smell lingered long after it dried?
Upon completion of the cleaning, I aerated the interior by leaving the flaps down (covers over screens) for 8 hours, as this cleared any residue of odor.
@@brianarsenault9281Thanks much, we have used this product and I am amazed at how well it worked, unbelievable!! Again, thanks for the video!
@@tedhederich3600 I remember well what it was like for me when I saw the results. . Mold travels slowly over time. and can make a real mess of a trailers interior vinyl. I know exactly how you were feeling, I've been there. Thanks for the comment Ted.
I’ve bought at-least 4 different products nothings worked :(
Im going to be trying this tomorrow hopefully it works !
I look forward to hearing your results : o )
Very informative Brian! Did you apply some sort of waterproofing in the interior after you cleaned it? Thank you.
I'm glad the tutorial was useful. In regards to applying waterproofing in the interior, this I did not do. I would imagine though, that while someone is sleeping, moisture from the exhalation of their breath may accumulate in the bunk-end which could over time lead to a reoccurrence of the mold.
@@brianarsenault9281 Thanks again! All the best!
Hi , Brian , thank you for the video , how many bottles of starbrite did you end up using . I hve some of it on my side windows too that is fabric , you think starbrite would be ok on fabric too it seems the bottle says its ok to use
When I used the product (Starbrite) I primarily used it to clean the mold from my trailer's vinyl underside (interior) of the bunk ends. Note! I was careful not to use the product Starbrite on the manufacturer's Sunbrella (a spray used on the exterior canvas fabric which has similarities to scotch guard - breathable, UV rated, water, mildew and stain resistant). I would suggest using the product (Starbrite) on an inconspicuous piece of your canvas and observe the results. Hope that helps : o )
Brian, did the Starbrite have any long term impact on the material? Any degrading of the material?
The recommendation of the product (Starbrite) was from a Canadian RV dealership who used it for their customers. . According to them, this product was there solution to remove mold. It's been a year for us without any issues.
Can you tell us if it caused any damage or brittleness of the fabric? Now that it is a year later?
For me , I've had no issues using the cleaning agent Star Brite, the integrity of the fabric is still in-tact.
@@brianarsenault9281 thank you !
That is canvas not vinyl..
Thanks for your feedback Scott. Either way, the product Star Bright removes the mold and gets rid of the problem.
Thank you.
It's a good feeling when you finally find a solution. My pleasure. : o )
