Best Mildew Remover?

Ever since we decided to get rid of the maid, our Master Bathroom shower has been getting worse with mold.  I couldn't figure out how to get rid of it.  It was a pain to scrub and I tried bleach, but it wouldn't get rid of it very well and it would come back very quickly.  I couldn't exactly call the maid up and ask her what she used.

So, I did some research on the internet.  Everything I found was people swearing by something called K-14 found at Lowe's.  I had only ever heard of X-14.  But, went to Lowe's to find this miracle product.  Just my luck, they didn't have any to be found.  Not even a spot for it on the shelf....No X-14 either.

Determined to get rid of this pesky mold once and for all, I bought 3 different types of cleaners and hoped that one of them would work.  If not, I'd just have to head back up there and buy 3 different types and just keep going until I finally had the mold problem solved.

I looked at all the labels, I must have spent at least half an hour just checking them all out.  Finally, I settled on Damp Rid Mildew Stain Remover, Kaboom Foam-Tastic & Tilex Mildew Root Penetrator.

I decided to try them one at a time, because if I found one that worked right away, I could return the ones that I had not yet opened.  So, I tried the Kaboom first.  After all, those showers they show in the commercials are waaaaaay dirtier than mine.  So, I sprayed a small area.  "When the foam turns white, you're ready to wipe!"  Yea right!  It was really cool to see the purple foam turn white, but that's about all it did.  It didn't even touch the mold!

Next, I tried the Damp Rid, I figured it had a really generic/professional looking label.  Again, I sprayed it on a small spot, left and came back a couple hours later.  It lightened the mold, but did not get rid of it completely.  So, it seems the only thing professional about this brand is the look!

I was getting really frustrated thinking I would have to go back to the store for more testing bottles.  Then, I tried the Tilex.  I saved the Tilex last because I remember using it when I was a teenager.  It was my job to clean the bathrooms and Tilex never really did work very well on the tile.  It worked fantastic when I needed to spray bleach spots on my jeans, but not so much on the tile back then.

So, I sprayed a small spot.  Well, they must have changed their formula because this time when I came back a couple hours later <cue the Hallelujah music> aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! The mold was completely GONE!!  I was so excited I sprayed the whole shower down and waited.  The waiting was like waiting for Santa to visit!  But, when I came back to check, it was like the maid had just been there and the shower was all white and clean!!

It was worth the experimenting to finally find the right product that will actually work!  I think we may have found Aaron's Science Project for next year!  He'll have to borrow someone's shower though because mine will never have mold again!!
