Mildew/stains on windshield cover

The cover is basically brand new. It was stored in compartment and has mildew stains on the inside. Any idea what to clean with? I tried detergents and stiff brush but it didn't work. Maybe my pressure washer is next. IDK.

Good luck, I've tried almost everything, from straight bleach, to the Mr Clean scrubber things, Lysol mold & mildew remover, used a stiff bristled brush, several other things that I cant even remember the names of, best I could get was the pink mold spots faded, but never completely went away, I've just learned to try my best & then live with it. If you find something that actually works, please let us know.

When mine gets that way, I just replace it.

Be sure it is dry when put away. If put away wet, take it out at home and let it dry.

Might try Wet and Forget. Spray it on and let it sit.

It was that way when I got the coach. I have a few ideas, this should be interesting.

We happened to be camping with my parents when ours got spots for the first time...my dad said "now you don't look like newbies anymore"

I just wipe them down with a Clorox wipe the best I can and move on. And I try to keep it dry like Bobbo's suggestion.

So I first scrubbed it with a stiff brush on a stick with Oxy clean laundry detergent ,rinse, scrubbing bubbles, rinse, clorox cleaner with bleach, let it sit for 30 minutes then fired up the pressure washer

and it went from "man is that horrible looking to "that looks pretty good". Yeah I know mixing chemicals. Everything was rinsed real well before the next chemical was tried. It appears the mildew is

between the layers so there it will stay. Ill get a new one but not for a while.

Try Roll Away or Roll Off. They're both marine products for mildew removal. Available at West Marine

I have one of their stores real close by.

Tilex Mold & Mildew Root Destroyer. Found in the same area as Tilex shower spray. Took almost all of mine on an old boat top away, and it had been stained for years. Spray on, sit a few minutes, brush, and rinse. May take a couple of times if stains are deep.

Mr Clean scrubbers did wonders for mine, takes a little work though.
Not like new but very good.
