How do I get Mildew from coloured curtains?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 

Does anyone know of any old fashioned remedies to get mildew from coloured curtains?

I can't use bleach because of the pattern (cream with red flowers on one set and the other set is lilac) and I have tried oxy action and washed them in the washer on a 40 degree wash. The black mould is still there.

Try Shout Gel, spray it on let it sit a day then wash, see if that helps! I have set in grease and that stuff has gotten it out! It is in a blue spray bottle.

Borax gets some mold out. It's an old fashioned laundry additive. It also is useful to repel bugs
