mildew and green marble

how do you clean mildew from green marble shower wall tiles appears some are brown in color shower is 10 years old ..... help please stan

 

Dear Stan:

There's mildew and "mildew"...

Well, it is indeed all mildew all the time, but the reason why it's there makes a huge difference in the course of action to take.

Let me explain:

If it is mildew that sometimes appears in a wet environment like a shower stall and is forming from without, then a good specialty cleaning product like MB-9 will take care of that in no time.

Bu t if the mildew is excessive and appears to be too stubborn to be cleaned effectively and a for a reasonable period of time, then it could be the consequence of the presence of water behind the stone tiles due to missing or damaged grout and/or caulk. In such case, you do understand that just cleaning it - assuming that's possible at all - will certainly not solve the problem.

From where I am I can only present possibilities, but it doesn't take an expert to monitor your grout lines and draw your own conclusions.

Ciao and good luck,
