Larose LoganOakes on Jul 10, 2013Say what is the swing made of?Have you tried Dawn dishwashing soap and bleach?This works wonders on the mold. Also if you know someone with a pick up truck you can secuely tie the swing down and take it through the car wash. My mother did this on a High back wicker chair and it worked great!Just a thought!If all else fails then just paint over it. I have done this before also.Helpful Reply

Terri Ball on Jul 13, 2013Chances are good that the mildew is in the paint. Make a mix of 1 cup of water and 1-2 tbls of bleach- mix in spray bottle. spritzs chair liberally with spray mix- within 10 min stain and smell will be gone or a noticible difference. IMPORTANT-- after stain/smell is gone rinse with clean water -bleach will eat a whole if left alone on some material. May repeat as needed just remember to rinse well and dry completely. best of luckHelpful Reply
