Cleaning mildew from interior

Chaps

Seriously contemplating the hair dresser car at the moment and have found one that's quite nice, but had a slightly leaky roof so inside's a bit slippery

Is mildew fairly easy to clean without leaving any permanent marks etc? Car is outside and will be moved in - it's probably going to get an engine swap (along with other bits and pieces )

Cheers all

Depends how long it's been there.

My TT Roadster grows a jungle inside if left untouched for 2 weeks.

Spray bottle with a little bit of fairy liquid in it, and a microfibre cloth, and just wipe/clean it all off, then drive it as much as possible to dry out.

Make sure it's not been sat damp inside for months as you may have bigger issues than mildew - if any interior fixings have started to rust noticeably, I would probably walk away.

I just use a bit of neat TFR, it's strong stuff so try on a bit under the seat first.
