Hi Folks

After a rather warm session my rather organised girlfriend put my racesuit back in the bag, I managed to forget about this for a couple of weeks and now my lovely Sparco Xlite suit has a bunch of black mildew marks on it

Does anyone have any advice on how to get this out?

Cheers

Scott

Just wash it as normal.
Though double check that it can just be washed.

My FreeM suits can all be machine washed 30c with a colour no run sheet.

Gave it a wash and there was still some marks. Will give it another shot and see how I get on

Try some "Vanish".
It's like a bar of soap. You rub the bar into the stain and then wash normally.
Most effective.
