cleaning travertine tiles

I have travertine tiles in the bathroom and have been advised by the shop that sold them to me that I should clean with a mild solution of washing up liquid as this is non-abrasive for limestone etc. However, despite regular cleaning and having a good fan in the bathroom there are small bits of mould already appearing around small areas of the grouting. What product can I use to clean this mould?

WOW!!... It sure sounds like they know what they're talking about!!!... J

 

To the best of my knowledge, MB-9 is the only product of its kind on the market that will work at removing mildew stains without affecting the stone.

And try to get some real intelligence about caring for your stone, rather than the dish-soap thing!!
