Blue Mold on carving

September 15 2009 at 4:54 PM

I carved a bear yesterday then put it in my garage, I came home from work and went in the garage, there is a blueish-greenish moss growing on the bear. Does anyone have any ideas how to get rid of it? Its on Pine.

I sprayed it with bleach to clean it but what can I use to STOP it from growing?

Thanks

Mold remidiation

September 22 2009, 7:55 PM 

I use a borite powder mixed with water that I spray on with a little pump sprayer, after I fisnish the carving I spray it and when it dries it leaves a little residue which I brush off before finishing, seems to work pretty good, I get the borite from a log home supply store. Hope that helps.
