Any experience with getting rid of mildew? I have a '78 Ranchero that, because of a leak, has mildew on the fabric (cloth and vinyl). I hesitate to use bleach.
 
Hate to give you bad news, but my car once got flooded and the only way to get rid of the musty smell and mold was to take it to shop that did interiors and get new "jute" installed under the carpet. I spent $300 but it was worth the money. Especially if you plan on keeping the car a while.

Before replacing the "jute" I would suggest trying a product called ODOBAN use it full strength in the effected area. I have had good results with ODOBAN removing mold and mildew on many different surfaces.
 
Where do you get Odoban? Is it fabric safe? I bought this Ranchero new 190240 miles ago and has never even had the valve covers off. Love that Windsor!

I plan to keep it........The mildew isn't too bad, but, can see it on the visors and doors.
