Default Bad smell from washing machine

Which is what I said in my post. But its effects last much longer than
ordinary bleach IME, so I think there's also a persistent fungicide in
there as well. But how it would perform in the detergent tray of a
washing machine, that gets frequently flushed, I've no idea.


The application of HG Mould Spray is almost as controversial as the use
of WD40. Magic stuff IMO, it brings up my shower wall grout nicely white.

From http://www.dehumidifier-reviews.co.u...d-spray-review

"We managed to get a hold of this closely-guarded list of main chemical
compounds that make up the formula, and they include:

Water

No surprises here.

Sodium hypochlorite (roughly 3% concentration)

Otherwise known as liquid bleach.

Sodium hydroxide (roughly 1% concentration)

A corrosive, alkaline compound often used as an industrial cleaning agent."

Hmmm, There is something German industrial looking, sold in Aldi/Lidl,
that I should try sometime.
