How to clean water stains on ceiling fabric
My 2006 Winnebago Outlook is great in many ways - but not so great on the details. We bought it two years old from an RV dealer who planned to use it as a rental but never set up a rental department. It was a great deal with very few miles on it.
Flash forward a couple of years and even though I've maintained the motorhome, I've still had to deal with multiple small water leaks. Last summer I finally put a stop to them by fully resealing all the roof penetrations. That did the trick, but now I'm trying to clean up the water stains from the fabric ceiling.
I've tried Spot Shot, Woolite spray foam, a watered-down bleach mixture (suggested on another forum) and Oxyclean pet stain remover. Not only do the stains look bad, but they'll reduce the value of the rig if I try to sell it later on. Has anyone had success in removing them?
Someone mentioned a cleaner like "Woolite Maximum Strength Oxyclean Pet Stain Formula". (The exact name got away from me.) I found it online about a year ago, but it was about $35 per bottle - not available at your neighborhood grocery store. That was a steep price to pay for something that "should work". Has it worked for anyone?
Any help is appreciated!
