MAJOR problem with mold &amp; mildew in a poorly ventilated bathroom. The shower is plastic w/ a glass door surrounded by rubber. Will Spray 9 clean this?

Yes !!! Cleans mildew from my vinyl boat seats that other cleaners won't even touch !!! Also helps prevent mildew from returning as quickly. No need to deal with chlorine bleach and those awful fumes.

Turn inside out. Spray with Tylex mold remover. Let sit 5-10 minutes. Rinse off (use the hose) and let dry thoroughly. Should be good as new. (I've even used Clorox bleach and it also works, but the Tylex works faster.)

It's not mold- or mildew-proof, though as others have said, if you unsnap it once or twice a month and run it through a hot wash, it should be good to go. I wasn't following this advice for my first liner and after about a year, I had to throw one out and buy a new one. Now I know to wash it every so often. I throw it in the wash with my bath mat, and/or sometimes with the shower curtain itself.

If it's just a small area and you know for sure there isn't a much bigger problem out of sight (behind walls, under carpet, etc.) then you can use either a bleach solution or vinegar solution. You should check online for suggested concentrations and directions. I did this myself for a small patch of mold on some drywall, and it worked out fine. But if you suspect there is a bigger problem you should call a professional remediation company. You don't want the spores spreading through your home if you have young children or elderly with weak respiratory systems. (I have seen DIY mold removal on youtube which basically requires you to wear a hazmat suit and cut out pieces of drywall, floor, etc that have been infested with mold. I guess you could go that route if you have the time...)

Thank you for your question. We called ADCO at 1-800-541-ADCO to get the answer to your question. The manufacturer recommends cleaning the cover with a solution of one gallon water and 1/4 cup bleach. Use a spray bottle to apply, and allow it to sit for a few minutes, then immediately rinse. This should kill the mold. Please let me know if you have any questions. I am happy to help you! Thank you Jessica with Covers Direct

We don't have glass doors, just shower curtains, but it gets hard water buildup off our brushed nickel faucets. Honestly, I'd personally try straight or diluted vinegar first, but this would be a good, non-toxic option to try if that doesn't help.

I have not had any mildew issues. They are the same fabric as a "fabric shower curtain so I would imagine that the room climate and moisture would determine the mildew issue more than the curtain in and of itself. They are relatively inexpensive so I would chance it with not much to loose.

http://blackmold.awardspace.com/kill-remove-mold.html with any thing that gets wet you need to have some preventative measures in place. I like to use viniger or better yet food grade 34% h2o that can clean / kill any thing. Clean the stool as often as you would clean your tub or shower.

I have only had mine for about a month. Is your bathroom well ventalated? Or is there alot of moisture building up? I would see if there is a way to contact moen. :)

I do not think it would help at all on mildew. I don't have mildew on woodwork around windows. However, because of your question, I tried on some mildew in bath on ceramic tile grout and it did not work on that at all. When I used it, it didn't clean anything well except windows, not even the vinyl part around windows. Try grapefruit seed extract for mildew.

We have a boat in florida and use a strong bleach and water mix in a spray bottle to clean the mildew off of the boat. I use spray nine as a pre spray for stains on clothing to be washed and it is fantastic. Hope this helps

I have used it as a spray and walk away in an outside storage shed. The white film of mold was on the floor under where the mowers are parked. I have also sprayed and walked with drywall inside. In the shower area, it worked better spraying and wiping after. Hopes this helps

i'm sorry but i can't tell you what they are made of because i don't have the packaging anymore. i can say i have had no mold or mildew build up. i do use a daily shower/tub spray which may help. i actually when back and made mention that they don't say what they are made of in the 'what did we miss' section so maybe they will say in the future.

I have the same issue and don't think the plastic can be removed. I'd love to hear if someone has a suggestion for cleaning this area out as well.

I never had any problems with Mold and Mildew, but I did use those little balls that you can purchase for this unit. My biggest problem was that it left a white, chalky feeling coating on all surfaces within 3 ft. of the unit. It would take too much distilled H2O to got that route. I stopped using it.

I used bleach to clean mine. You have to rinse about 100 times to make sure to get it all out but it worked. All mold gone. I left overnite. Only use enough bleach to cover the bottom

None for me! Between the steam and whatever you soap/shampoo with, it's clean, fresh, and doesn't even collect mold. I'm quite loving the zen of my bathroom.
