I am a mess! I have always had to fight mold in a small bathroom with a walk-in shower. I was out-of-town for a month and now have a problem.

In the corners of my shower there are what I guess are dark stains caused by mold. I am assuming stain since Tilex nor straight bleach will take them out and I have scrubbed and scrubbed. Is there anything that I can use to remove the stains?

Next question. A couple of years ago my husband used some kind of cleaner that removed the glaze on the tile on the floor of the same shower. Is there something I can use to clean and reglaze the tile?

Thanks for any help.

Hi cyndil, folks around here are going to want a first name. They are friendly bunch. :)
Here are a couple of links on mold you may find helpful. If this doesn't help, you might have to actually remove the stained grout or caulk and redo the corners.

On the lose of glaze, you might be out of luck there too. Hang tight until one of the restoration pros chimes in.
