How do I remove mildew from cloth curtains?

Question

I hung cloth curtains in the window in my shower and now, after repeatedly getting wet, the curtains have mildew stains. I tried washing in bleach but didn't do a thing. Is there any solution other than replacing with new curtains?

Answer 1

try spraying Tilex mildew remover directly on the stain and let it set.  If that don't work, try filling the bathtub up w/ scalding hot water and w/ some oxy clean in it.  I'm assuming that this is a white shower curtain since you said you already tried washing it in bleach?  Just in case it's not, if the curtain is colored the Tilex will make a bleached out spot.

Answer 2

Debra use Lysol tub & tile cleaner.  Spray on and let set for about 30 seconds and wipe off.  It was made for removing mildew, but cleans about anything. It will have mildew inhibator.

Good Luck
