[Mgs] Mold

[Frank Krajewski]

I keep my 1980 MGB LE stored and covered in my sop from about late September to now. I live in Rhode island and can’t risk driving it until the rain has washed away all the salt on the roads. This year I took it to Bassett’s Jaguar, just down the road from me as I know Bill Bassett and he has helped me out in the past. It needed some minor work which he was going to do. Bill called me later tat day and said he couldn’t touch the car due to extensive mold everywhere.  Since then I have embarked on an extensive mold removal effort using white vinegar and several commercially available products. Is there something more I should be doing and is there some way to prevent this from happening in the future other than leaving the car uncovered? I am even having it professionally detailed next week. The detailer promised to thoroughly clean and demold  the car.
