Mouldy Bathroom Silicone
There's no denying that mouldy silicone makes even the most luxurious bathroom look ekky and horrid, and it can be an absolute nightmare to combat, that's why you need Bathroom Buster (check out the video above) if our product can touch the mould it will kill it.
Mould grows deep behind silicone, and silicone is designed to stop liquid getting behind it, so it won't matter what product you use to try and get rid of the mould; the mould will not be killed until the product can get in contact with the mould, and sometimes this is only possible if the silicone is removed.
When you rip the old silicone out, you’ll have to treat the area with our mould remover sprays and power mould-killing crystals before laying down new silicone. The good news is that replacing silicone isn't a huge undertaking, and if you know your way around the less pretty aisles in Bunnings , it is a pretty straightforward DIY job.
Moisture-laden and poorly ventilated bathrooms are the perfect space for various species of mould to thrive, particularly on the edges of your bathroom amenities and the silicone behind them. Our mould remover can be utilised during the process of silicone replacement as an effective mould killer. Using our mould remover between the removal and reapplication of silicone stops mould in its tracks and lowers the risk of potentially adverse impacts on the home.

How to Restore Your Silicone With Our Mould Remover Products.
Between removing the old silicone sealant and applying new silicone, it is essential to ensure that the affected area is completely rid of mould and mouldy surfaces. Using Green Goo’s Bathroom Busting Anti Mould Trial Pack, you can rest assured that mould will be no more
Equipment:
To safely remove silicone, effectively clean it of mould and replace it with new silicone, you will need the following equipment:
- Sharp Knife
- Scraper/ Flat Chisel
- Methylated Spirits
- Sponge
- Rubber Gloves (optional)
- Green Goo’s Bathroom Busting Anti Mould Trial Pack
- Your choice of Silicone
- Caulking Gun
- Rag
- 2 x Popsicle sticks
- Water (in a spray bottle)
- Turps or Silicone Remover
Step 1: Remove Old Silicone
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut along the side and the back of the silicone. This will allow the strip of silicone to be removed. Using a flat chisel, get into the corners of where you previously trimmed to ensure all silicone is removed. Using a scraper get in behind the amenity and the wall to further remove any large chunks hiding beneath the surface. Wipe up any residue or remnants of silicone using methylated spirits and a wet sponge
Step 2: Spray the Area With Green Goo Bathroom Buster Spray
After you remove and safely dispose of your old silicone, spray the affected areas directly with Green Goo’s Bathroom Buster Spray. For maximum effect, leave the spray to sink in for several minutes, then wipe clean using the microfibre cloth provided. Repeat this step on all affected areas.
Step 3: Utilise the Mould Power Crystals
Following spraying and wiping the affected area with our Bathroom Buster Spray, open the 300ml of Mould Power Crystals and transfer into the 150ml empty vented tub. Place the newly filled tub (or two or three) directly in the vicinity of the affected area and leave for a number of days (up to thirty) until there is a noticeable reduction in the amount of mould in your bathroom.
Step 4: Apply New Silicone
Using a rag, wipe the area and clean it of any dust or silicone debris. Following this, using the caulking gun and silicone tube, apply silicone generously along the desired edges. Spray the area with water and use a popsicle stick to smooth it over.
And that's all there is to it! Done!
