Secret Jardin Dr150, how do I wash it?

[Wonderon]

Straight to the point I want to wash the fabric lining of my tent. It says it is washable but being that it is so big it doesn't fit in a normal washing machine. Any tips or ideas how to give it a proper cleaning?

I've even considered taking it to a laundromat to use a large capacity washing machine but that might be too noticeable.

Im pretty sure a washing machine will destroy a tent.
I just wash them down with the hose and then use a light bleach or iso solution and wipe it down.

I agree, I would use a diluted bleach solution to kill spores, pollen and everything else which lurks.

A light bleach solution or all purpose cleaner with a rag does the trick for me.

i sprayed mine, while still put together with a bleach solution.

sprayed it off..


got inside it with a bucket of hot bleachy water and cleaned it with a rag.

then took it apart to get all the corners and what ever else was covered by the poles.

isnt to time consuming since its such a small tent.

i would NOT put it in a washer..

but if you do lemme know how it works out. cause that would be much simpler.

fill bath with hot/cold water and whatever cleaning products you want.
Get scrubbin! but only if u want inside and out cleaned! lol
thats what ive seen done. Seems to work, some of them cheaper tents tear easy, so just be wary depending on quality of material.

Good luck m8

That's a great idea. Hadn't thought of that. It's pretty thick material so I think.it will be fine. I couldn't even get 1/3 of it in my washer due to its thickness and overall size. I'll try the bathtub idea. Thanks

nice, the thicker ones clean easy.
My mate used to leave it in there for a few hours, to marinate as he called it, lol
