Mold on interior plastic
« on: March 15 2023, 22:12 »
This winter there was a lot of humidity in the air and I got mold on the interior plastic, black dots on white plastic.

What is the best way to clean it?

Diluted bleach.  Use rubber gloves and safety glasses.  Rinse well.

OK, thank you for advice.

According to your answers, I see that there is no need for expensive commercial products specially intended for nautical use.

If you read the ingredients lists, you'll find most of them are just bleach in a fancy bottle!
