Re: FAB cleaning

[Guest guest]

if it's mold you'll need bleach. I'd mix up a mild solution and q-tip it

on and see if it clears it up. If it goes away it's mold and you did the

right thing lol. The only thing I know of that kills mold is bleach. It's

harsh but if the solution is mild enough you won't have any problems (can't

be too mild or it won't work!). If anyone has better ideas for mold I'm

all ears! I've got some on my stroller that I'm reticent to put bleach

(even mild) on. I've used the mild solution on lifejackets and they're

still in great shape years after I sprayed them (and the mildew is

gone). Just be sure to rinse well.

Maybe scrub it with a toothbrush or something??? Is the rubber stained? Do you

know what stained it? I haven't had that problem but I do have to wash them

occasionally with a mild soapy cloth.

FAB cleaning

Any advise on how to clean the sandals? DD has some brown

spots (mold? mildew? fungus?) under her left heal on the yellow

padding on the bottom of the shoe. Her foot looks fine with no marks

just the shoes. I tried to clean it with alcohol but that didn't

seem to make a difference and rubbed it with bleach but it is still

there? Suggestions? Anyone else with this problem?
