I would tread on the side of caution with this one, if it’s as bad as you say you may have mould within the carcase framework walk away.

Hi Dave
As Len says, but I put it this way, the problem is the customers DO Not let it become yours, walk away.

Dave,
The problem with black mould is that it grows within the fabric - with natural fibres, within the fibre strands themselves.
The most effective treatment I have found is Ultrapac Renovate BUT results are most often dissapointing.
I have also had some sucess with peroxide bleaching boosted with ammonia as a final treatment but this is likely to cause undesired colour loss and posible fibre weakening.
Best left alone.
