发帖数: 2607 | 5 so many different products of mold remover and bath cleaning for sale
everywhere. go to hd/lowes/walmart/targets or even grocery, you will find
more than enough. I applied mold remover the first step. apply enough and
leave it there for a while to let it soak. then cut with utility knife. I
also found the steel brush from hd is helpful as well to deal with small
pieces (residuals)

发帖数: 488 | 6 LZ sounds very professional --- can you give me a picture link of a blade
screw driver? I searched online and didn't find one. Also, can I just use
a common knife? I searched for "utility knife" on the internet and it
doesn't seem to be different from a common knife.

I just don't recall the formal name of it... the tility knife uses those
kinds of stand alone blades. easy to change, also solid and sharp enough to
cut caulk (even grout)

发帖数: 488 | 12 two more questions:
1. I've finally removed the old caulking, then I found that the grout
underneath the old caulking no longer has a smooth surface --- do I need to
remove or redo the grout as well? Or maybe just adding some new grout to
smooth the surface before applying the new caulking? Or do nothing at all?
2. Do you use a caulking gun to do the caulking? If you just hand squeeze it
, how do you smooth out the caulking beads?
Many thanks.

发帖数: 4125 | 13 Remove all the loose pieces, vacuum. no need to add more grout if you plan
to caulk.
You should get a caulking tool kit like this.
