I have some tiny spots that look like mildew on my mainsail. I tried a sailbrite product with no success. Thought I heard oxygenated-bleach. Is that Ok? Any better ideas?
Thanks

Torresen Marine (go_sail@torresen.com) has a lot of maintenance recommendations. To remove mildew they recommend: brush the area with a stiff brush to remove as much as possible. Place infected area in a solution of 1% bleach and cold water for about two hours. Wash thoroughly and rinse with fresh water. Repeat if necessary. Another method is to wash the stain in hot, sudsy water (with some bleach added), then rinse and dry. Moisten the stain with lemon juice and salt and let it dry in the sun. Rinse in warm water. Good luck!!
