How do I clean this grimy 30 year old upholstery?

How do I clean this grimy 30 year old upholstery?

We bought an old Viscount caravan and the cushions are ancient and FOUL. A couple of the cushions have cleaned okay but others haven’t.

You can feel the thick grime when you touch them and it leaves residue on your hands…our friend has leant us her spot cleaner and whilst its helped a little it isn’t getting down to that old dirt and whatever else (cigarette smoke, sweat, fluids from a decomposing body, who knows?).

I can’t properly soak them because they don’t fit in the bathtub. My next thought is to take them outside, cover them in a sard/water mix and wash it down with the hose.

I’ve had bad knees for years and as a result I have very very little strength in them. I got into jogging about six years ago and it completely demolished them. On top of that I am about 25kg overweight so…that makes it harder.

When I research exercises to help strengthen my knees the results all tell me to do lunges. I CANT. I CANT DO LUNGES.

I’m working on the weight thing (slowly getting there) and I am training as much lower body as I can to support my knees via various muscles and I’m pleased with the progress I’ve made.

My physio has had me doing step ups - but anything that would be effective is too high for me at this point. The lower step ups feel too easy. Im struggling to find anything in between.

Can someone help a fat, weak kneed girl out?
