I have tried to fix the mold in the ceiling of my bedroom using the natural green goo. No improvements. The leaking pipes have been fixed but I still cannot get rid of the mold. Any suggestion? Thank you!
Hello,
I'm trying to fix the mould on the ceiling using Flood Mould Action Prewash with the garden sprayer suggested. Super easy! Thanks a mil for both recommendations.
I've applied 1 coating, waited 24 hours, brushed off the dead spores.
I applied a second coating and repeated the process. In attach pics of before after. In blue the section I've worked on. The after is better but it's not back to the original white color, it's stained. How do I fix this?
If I repaint the surface, will I have again the issue?
Thanks a mil!
Hello @ventodimare
It's highly probable that your ceiling has been stained due to the mould infestation. I suggest using a stiff brush to remove any remaining dead spores on the ceiling. Once you have cleaned it as best as you can, make sure to follow Mitchell's recommendation to add Protite 75ml Mould Defender Paint Additive to your ceiling paint to prevent further outbreaks. Because you have treated the surface with Flood 1L Mould Action Prewash there should be no more mould growth after painting it.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hello @ventodimare
Just to be on the safe side, I would probably still add the Protite for full protection. In regards to the Ozito 400W sprayer there are specific instructions to follow if you are spraying overhead. I've placed an image below to give you an idea of how to prepare the sprayer for overhead use.
If you need further assistance, please let me know.

Hello,
Thank you everyone for helping me out with the issue about mold in bathroom/bedroom ceilings. I have followed all your recommendations (anti mold, paint) and in attach I put a pic of my work.
I'm on a roll :-), and want to repaint the walls as well.
I have realised that I definitely need an extension pole. I want one I can lock at different lengths and not only fully extended or retracted. I checked the page listing the painting poles but I cannot figure out how to tell which one works as I want. Can you help? Again thanks the whole community!
That's looking fantastic, @ventodimare!
Just about all our paint poles allow you to lock them at specific heights. I've never encountered any that only let you lock at the full height. Something like the ProRenovator 1.0 - 1.8m Aluminium Extension Pole has a twist lock mechanism, which allows you to set the exact height you want and would be perfect for your needs.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Mitchell
