I have acquired a Dusty Strings case (FH36 size) that unfortunately was stored in a damp basement and is now quite musty smelling. It has been sitting outside in the blazing sun for nearly 2 weeks without much success. Can these be dry cleaned?

It is nylon, with foam padding inside. Can’t dry clean the foam rubber. But it can be washed.

Unfortunately nylon has very poor UV resistance, and sunlight for 2 weeks may have weakened it substantially, I’m sorry to say. Perhaps not yet…..

Washing, scrubbing, hydrogen peroxide, deodorizers like pet smell removers are things I might try. Absolutely no chlorine bleach.
