Mold On Vert Top

Cazo777 · 06-21-2005, 04:35 PM

How do I get rid of this black mold (spotty) on my beige vert top (02 GT Convertible)-I've tried Mothers cleaner, didnt work. A local shop told me to use bleach (DOESNT SOUND LIKE A GOOD IDEA).
Any help would be greatly preciated.

I have used some GOJO Orange hand cleaner on a soft brush on mine, it works really well, just wash it afterward with normal car wash soap and make sure you get it all off.

you can try a household product called oxiclean,it should work

Typically I use Chlorox cleanup and a toothbrush, but I have used straight bleach before. Use a sponge to apply the bleach in small areas and scrub with a brush. I used a pressure washer to blast the bleach off the top so that none was able to run down the side of the car. I have noticed nothing bad as a result, but I do apply another coat of wax after doing this.

Sorry, after reading again I see you have a beige top, mine's white. I'm not certain how this would work full strength. If you try it, I would definitely dilute it.

haha-don't use bleach, that sounds like a REAL bad idea. I just got a new blue top on my mustang and the guy that put my top together told me to use gentle dish detergent, like Ajax. It gets it clean.
