Gumption mate. Wet the shower. Rub the shower down with the Gumption paste everywhere, taps, tiles, grout, shower screen. Let it sit for minutes. Rub it in again with a wet sponge and rinse it all off. Get the kids involved. It's non toxic. You can get it from Woolies, Coles, bunnings.
You reckon Shower Power stuff any good?
Um I didn't really like it. It just doesn't have the oomph that paste has. Don't underestimate good old dishwashing liquid.
Right on. I'll get on it, thanks
No worries. If you've got a lot of grout and crevices get a grout brush too.
Worked great on the glass thanks, but turns the mould in the corners is beneath/in the sealant... I'll need something stronger I think.
Sorry buddy I'm not sure what you mean. If sealant is mouldy then nothing will help that.
Yeah, the sealant is mouldy. There was a top layer of dark scum which came off, but then the full extent of the problem was revealed....
There's nothing you can do. The sealant needs to be replaced.

Yeah. Just leave it. If mushrooms start growing out of it then consider replacing. Until then it's fine.
