Let's talk about alternatives to using bleach on wood.........assuming that you are not dealing with extrememly heavy mold, in which case, you may not have any choice but to use bleach.


I didn't think that oxalic acid makes a very good cleaner. To the best of my knowledge, it is better used as a brightner or neutralizer.........

Other options:

Oxygenated Bleach (usually a powder)



Feel free to add something here..........lets get this topic going...
