I think you may have mould in the flocking. Some folk favour tilex or the like, I've used a solution of household bleach and water. It finest have to be a strong solution. When I have done it, I chose a warm day, had the van out of the sun ( dont want the pop top hot and volatilizing the chlorine, we're not doing a WWI trench re-enactment). I covered the top bunk and the kitchen with plastic sheeting. Used a spray bottle with the bleach solution, and had at it. After 5 or 10 minutes I blotted off as much as I could with a towel, then sprayed again with plain water. Then another blotting. Rinse and repeat as much as you feel like. It's a pain in the donkey, and you might have some residual bleach smell. That can bring back nostalgic memories of over chlorinated swimming pools. My memory fails me right now, but I believe there is a less toxic mould remover on the market. Whether it works as well as bleach I can't say.
