[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 632804, member: 39764"] I'm presuming it's carpeted over MDF for the shelves. You'll have to pull the interior shelves and dividers and pull the carpeting (it's stapled to the MDF and then recarpet the MDF with new. Carpet is cheap and you can custom pick a color and make it your own..... Far as the body (of the safe) is concerned, other than the front door and lock mechanism, wash it down with Trisodium Phosphate inside (available at home depot type stores) mix according to box directions and wear rubber gloves. That will kill and remove the mold and mildew. If you can pressure wash it inside, just not the door. For the door, wash it by hand and rinse with clean wet rags. Dry the interior after so nothing rusts..... I went through the same thing with a safe I inhereted that was in a damp basement. It's good as new now and smells much better.......:D hope that helps.... [/QUOTE]
