Question

The bathroom in my new apartment doesnt ventilate well at all and has mildew stains all over the upper walls. Can these stains be removed and how is the best way to do it?

Answer 1

MIx 50/50 bleach and water and spray once a week. Or replace the drywall.

Answer 2

Try Tilex Mildew Stain Remover. I've had good luck with it in poorly ventilated apartment bathrooms.

Answer 3

First you have to buy a good mildew remover. Make sure you remove it all. Then you need to paint it with a product like Kilz. Then paint with a mildew resistant paint. You have to keep a I on it because it will usually try to reappear. Mold is a very dangerous product.

Answer 4

first do this, 1/2 bleach 1/2 water solution wipe it down and put a fan in the bathroom to dry it out quickly, THEN go to home depo or Lowes and buy Kilz white paint and ask the painting department for a package of the Meldew stuff you add to the paint and mix it up then paint your walls its a easy as 1-2-3 you'll find they are a big help and THIS WORKS
