That's interesting about the peroxide and baking soda. I'm getting ready to try and remove a coating of mold from inside the '83 300D which apparently got enough water inside during the recent blowing rains to make it humid enough that the whole interior was coated with white mold. It hasn't been on a long time and wipes off with a little elbow grease fairly easily using 409.
Internet websites say that peroxide is the best mold killer, and a solution of one cup of borax powder in a gallon of water, sprayed or wiped on and left to dry will prevent future mold growth. The only concern is whether or not the peroxide or the borax solution will bleach or damage the blue MBtex. Anyone had experience using these chemicals on MBtex?
