Afraid they may be closed due to "lockdown".
And I've tried most of the "civilian" methods already.
Bud:
Well if laundry bleach did not kill it you may have a hopeless case or the mold is dead already :-//

But you will be better off by using toilet paper and laundry bleach. Take a length of toilet paper and spiral it in a tight rope. Place on the mold and moisten with bleach. Push slightly on it to make good contact with mold. Leave for 6-8 hours, Add bleach once in a while to keep the paper rope wet. Then remove the paper and wash the area. Cheaper then peroxide and very effective. Yes it will smell while being worked so ventilate the house.
Many mold killers use bleach anyways and those which do not are less effective.

That will be 40 volume (12%) peroxide, NOT 40% peroxide. 40% peroxide is very dangerous stuff and not the sort of thing a civilian is likely to have access to outside of a lab environment. Why they still use that odd unit I don't know.

That's what I initially used, but I found later that ordinary drugstore 3% peroxide works just fine for that, and is less likely to damage the plastic. I also found that rather than mixing up the gel, I get better results by simply mixing the peroxide and oxy-boost in a spray bottle and then sit outside in a lawn chair giving the thing I'm trying to lighten a few mists now and then to keep it damp. Usually it's about the right amount of time to have a beer.
