  • I used Lysol mold and mildew remover with bleach. It took the mold off. Not sure how safe it was for the canvas. But it worked and canvas did not leak.

    Try it. You'll like it. Make sure you follow the directions.

    And you have tried ( MOLD ARMOR )? Green spray bottle. Home depot. Ace. Lowes. Walmart.

  • I have never found anything that gets rid of the stain once the mold is gone.

    Bleach water lightens it but it still shows. Annoying but otherwise not much of a problem.
  • Thanks Mike,
    This is my first pop up/trailer, learning curve did not want put something that could damage more.
  • Available at Dollar General stores
    Works great for us.



    Good Luck, Mike
