Old wives tales and folk law tell of amazing stories of how a mixture of vinegar and warm water will remove mildew, but how effective is this? And do you really have enough vinegar or want the constant smell of vinegar around your vehicle while on holiday? Probably not, unless you're having fish & chips at the time while sitting in a caravan and camping park by the sea. And sure, vinegar and water *can* work with hours of elbow grease, but if your caravan is larger than a dustbin, do you really want to spend hours literally crawling all over your caravan with vinegar and warm water for mediocre results?
