 seats belts have gone moldy Putting the finishing touches to the race car, and have noticed that the seat belts have got black mold all over them, anyone know what the best way would be to clean it?

Re: seats belts have gone moldy I've put harnesses in the washing machine before, but I'd think a scrub and a soak in a bucket of water and washing liquid would do the trick.

Re: seats belts have gone moldy As well as giving them the washing machine treatment, some of this will prevent the mould from reappearing, according to a thread on Pistonheads...  < http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/household-produ ... r/1488253/ > ken

Re: seats belts have gone moldy tried the washing up liquid, along with swarfega, mold remover bicarbonate of soda - worried about putting them in the washing machine what about the buckle part!
just read somewhere about valeters use brake cleaner

Re: seats belts have gone moldy Put it in with a full washload, then it won't rattle about so much.

Re: seats belts have gone moldy Wipe them clean with Rodalon. That will prevent the mould from reappearing.
