Not sure if this is the right thread (probably not) but almost certainly has folk with knowledge looking at it, so...
I have an old Vango Banshee 300 which has been stored in its bag for years (honestly no idea the last time it was used, maybe 9-10 years ago) and the bottom of the inner has, I think, started delaminating - it's covered in a whiteish coating and let moisture in the bottom as soon as I pitched it for testing on a relatively dry bit of grass in my back garden. The tent is decent and I was hoping to go camping with my almost 3yo daughter this weekend but it looks like that's not happening with this tent. Googling suggests it could be saved but also the process of trying to remove the coating and then re-proofing it is very time consuming and it might not work. Has anyone suffered the same thing with a tale to tell about bringing it back to life, or should I just dump it?
