I have a 370 Sundancer with tan canvas. I have mold on the bottom side and its a problem to clean off.
Any ideas form the group what product works then best.
 
If it's regular Sunbrella, scrubbing with white vinegar and Spray 9 has very effective for me.

If it is the rubber-lined water proof Sunbrella, I'm found it very difficult to get the mildew stains out of it. Spray 9 has reduced them but not removed them.

Either way, use the white vinegar with your cleaner of choice. It kills the mildew and it's spores.
 
We have Sumbrella & had the same issue. We used Kanbera gel to kill the mold & Dow bathroom cleaner to clean the dead mold. No spots left either. Did it late last summer, hasn't been back yet. Left the Bimini up all winter.
 
I used 3M mildew stain remover today with remarkable results. I love it when a product works as advertised. Effortless spray on wipe off.
 
I used Simple Green (purchased from Wal-Mart not the expensive stuff from West Marine) and a magic eraser for the tough stains. Wiped off with a clean damp cloth - looks like new.
 
Star bright mildew remover worked with no problem. Had mildew on my cover for over 4 years on my 240. Decided to take care it one day using the star bright stuff I had on my boat from an earlier cabin leak. Came off looking like new.
