    Another vote for HG foam. Do not get on your clothes and wash it off your hands. 
    Ive just ordered another bottle - you gotta laugh I put it on with just my bra and pants (TMI) and wore gloves
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    I bought the HG foam and it was delivered this morning. I used it twice on the particularly mouldy sealant on my bath, with about 2 hours in between, and I am genuinely amazed at the results. All the mould has gone. Well worth the price i paid, i would advise everyone to buy it right now. However well-ventilate and don't spend too much time in the room as I don't know what is in it, but it works as it says on the bottle.

    It's mainly a strong solution of bleach.
