Treat Mildew GrowthMildew is not caused by paint or stain; it is the result of fungal growth. This fungus is deposited on paint concrete and other surfaces by spores that are always in the air around us. It grows in black or purple colonies on exterior siding, bathroom walls and concrete floors. There is no absolute prevention or cure for the growth of mildew in areas where conditions for growth are favorable. Back to TopMold and mildew, sometimes erroneously called "stains", are actually live matter growing on the surface of paint (and wood, glass, concrete, and most other surfaces). No coating should be attempoted to be applied over mold or mildew, as it will merely grow back through the fresh paint. The mold or mildew must first be KILLED with a strong bleach solution. Then the dead spores should be loosened and removed by scrubbing with a good detergent like Soilax (R). Adequate flushing with clear water will aid in the process. If not removed, the dead spores will act the same as dirt, and interfere with the adhesion of the next coat of paint. An effective solution for the killing/removal of mold/mildew is: cup of bleach, such as Clorox (R) or Javax (R) -half cup of Soilax (R) or tri sodium phosphate Warm water to make one gallon. Rubber gloves and protective eye goggles should be worn during the cleaning process. The subject of repainting peeling or deteriorating paint is another whole subject in itself. The sum of it is, you may get the paint to stick to the surface to which it is applied, but if the substrate fails, it will carry the paint off too.
