Does anyone know how to gently remove mold from old fabric wallcoverings? I have pale pink fabric wallcoverings. I have tried a diluted all purpose disinfectant, this caused discoloring. Now I am afraid to use a diluted bleach mixture. I live in Europe therefore, I cannot find the same name brands as in the U.S. Please, I need help!--Frenchy

There really isn't a type or brand of fabric wallpaper cleaner on the market in the USA. I would suggest that you try whatever spot removers or laundry soaps you can find in France. Be sure to test first in a spot that is not noticeable.
