Hi, my dad has several old North Face tents from the early 70's that are still good solid usable tents with one major caveat. They reek of that vomit smell from the material breaking down.
Has anyone ever successfully removed that smell? I read somewhere that one guy recommended washing the material itself in the washing machine on delicate and then spraying it with Nikwax.
Opinions or other suggestions? I'd really like to dust some of these tents off but not until I can stand to breath inside them through my nose.
