What is a good cleaner to clean mould or mould stains from gore-tex shell wear?

According to this document :

http://cool.conservation-us.org/coolaic ... 11-33.html
Gore Tex is resistant to Hydrogen peroxide.
This from a tent maintenance site :

"To remove mould or mildew, make a 5% solution of hydrogen peroxide. (125ml in 5 litres of water.) Sponge the solution on and, when the mould is gone, rinse off and wash the tent as below. "

So you may want to patch test that to see if it works.

First thing I would wash it according to the instructions here :.

Thanks Franco, yes the washing has all been done in accordance with GoreTex Instructions allready but the stain remains. A rolled up hood left in a drying room each night for 2 & 1/2 weeks.

I'll check out the hydrogen peroxide solution.
