Default very confused-- Bleach vs. Mold

In article 6UMjf.113001$qk4.70918@bgtnsc05-
news.ops.worldnet.att.net, says...

If you are smart enough to know the word "halogen"
then you should be smart enough to know what
chlorine bleach is. There may be some products
with bromine or iodine, but I wouldn't want to use
them on my clothes. And certainly, none have
fluorine in them.


Actually, "Whink" rust stain remover, usually found either in the
laundry aisle or in the bathroom cleaners section, is hydrofluoric
acid in a plastic squeeze bottle. Strong enough concentration to
etch many porcelain fixtures, but it does remove rust stains quite
well. Just avoid those nasty HF burns....

(And people say bleach would be hard on your skin ;-)
