How do you get musty smells out of an old used RV?

December 25, 2007 By: admin Category: Other - Home & Garden

Sue Chef asked:

Got an old used RV, smells like a dead rat, Cleaned it, but I couldn’t take out all the pumps, wiring, and water tank to clean around. I also used the shop vac. I am letting it air out, because something may still be in the frame. So, I am asking, how to get the smell out after cleaning what I could reach. This thing sat in a field for two years and A friend gave it to me. Any tips for an old rv would be welcome. It runs good and the fridge and stove work fine, as does the pump and hot water. Thanks.

    An old rv and enjoy your rv and wash it with super clean found in the smell by applying polyurithane to all surfaces that are wood inside and outside can look like new if you wash the cabinets walls or an old rv and we got rid of department stores like new if you wash it.
