Bleach on Latex Paint
I had used Target Surface CLeaner with (hypochlorite) Bleach five years ago
to remove mold from latex paint and it neither peeled nor became moldy again. Now they sell a Target "all purpose cleaner with bleach" which is 2% hypochlorite, but they say to use it on non-porous hard surfaces. Is this essentially the same product? Why the change in warnings? Tilex, which is 3% hypochlorite says do not use on paint unless you plan to repaint. I do not mind discoloration. My uncle used TIDE on asbestos sand paint and it began peeling within hours. Now this paint is not asbestos, but I don't want to deal with peeling. But I don't want this thing to spread. - = - Vasos Panagiotopoulos, Columbia'81+, Reagan, Mozart, Pindus, BioStrategist http://www.panix.com/~vjp2/vasos.htm http://www.facebook.com/vasjpan2 ---{Nothing herein constitutes advice.

Pigments could also change color. Don't know about asbestos sand paint but it may have a more open structure that allows absorbtion of the bleach for longer term contact which degrades the paint polymer. Laundry bleach, I believe, contains about 5% hypochlorite and is a very powerful oxidizing agent attacking most organic materials. |
