The mildew that is there is only the size of a pin head and there are
about 5 or 6 of them. Not much at all. I'm impressed considering that
the paint used seems to be waterbased. I think that the mold that is
there is because we didn't always bother to take precautions of keeping
the curtain open and using the exaust fan. I could easily spray with a
bleach and water mixture each week when cleaning.
