CoachBuilt Prams

just bought old wilson coachbuilt (haven't recieved it yet!),the inside of the navy vinyl bed part is full of a rusty looking mould,also interior of the hood,how best to go about fixing this problem please without damaging it?

all help greatly appreciated!

Maureen   use   some  cream  cleanser  like   Cif  and   a   sponge   washing up  pad, the  type  with  a   nylon  scourer  on one  side.  As  long  as  you  don't  press  too  hard   around  the  seams  of the  hood,  you  can't  do  a lot of  damage   and  it  should   remove  anything that is  going  to come off.  I haven't  never   had  a problem  with  mould    on   a  navy lining,  but  I have  had it  with  a camelia  lining  when  it  usually  appears  as  mildew,   and then  very often  nothing  removes it.   So   good  luck  with it

thanks sandra,

i'll try that,

sandra,the pram came today & there's no mould on it,it was just dirt!

i think with a little work to it overall,it should come up lovely!

Oh  brilliant  Maureen,  can't  wait  to  seeit  when it has  had a  good  scrub with my old  friend  the  cream  cleanser,  I  just  love  that  stuff!   It  is a  prammies  best  pal  I think.

yes,i was so pleased it was just dirt!

sandra,do you know anywhere i could get a new rubber grip for the handle,it's a proper thick white rubber type,but sadly it's perished & all bits missing off it?

thanks,maureenxxx

I'm  afraid  that  I have  never managed  to  find  one of the  rubby  hand  grips   up  to  now Maureen, if  I  do  I'll  put it into  the PramSuppliers/Services  section,  that is  where  I  would  normally  put  this  sort of  info.
