Default Mold on Foundation Block

Need suggestions on how to remove florescense (sp?) and mold from

repainting.

Thanks


The source of the efflorescence is slowly migrating water containing
dissolved minerals. Should be removable by simple washing. Blocking
the water will stop the deposits, so check the market for known good
products of that type. HTH
