I had a mold stain on the back of a yellow Melton coat (wool). I used a combination of Melamagic and Sol-U-Mel, both products of the Melaleuca company, (available on line from the company). I used about two tablespoons of each, diluted with an equal amount of water and poured the solution over the stain. It disappeared before my eyes. Because it was so fast I worried that it might hurt the cloth so I rinsed it immediately and well but no harm done.
Hope this will help :?
Melaleuca products are the most amazing thing since sliced bread IMHO! They have saved my kids clothes & pretty much cleared up my nephews ezecma!
