Anyone know about removing mildew from antiques?
We bought this gorgeous antique cabinet at an auction, and the mildew is much worse than I initially thought. It's mostly on the inside, so I'm more concerned about the smell than the appearance. I tried a bleach and water solution, which didn't help.
Outside of having it professionally restored, any suggestions? I unfortunately don't have an outside area to work in, so whatever I do has to be done indoors, if at all possible.
Re: Anyone know about removing mildew from antiques?
Murphys oil soap and then vinegar. Try sitting it out in the sun too.
are you going to repaint it? some sanding and kilz will knock it out.
if not, it may just take time and repeated washing with some sort of anti-mildew solution. i have heard that bleach + dish soap is good.

I unfortunately have no place to put it outside.
I guess I'll just wash with bleach and dish soap (and water, I'm assuming?) repeatedly and see if I make any progress, and if not, try Murphy's if I can find it. Definitely not repainting--it's really gorgeous.
Thanks ladies!
