I just remodeled a house which had caposporum mildew (the same stuff that grows in showers) in a thin sheen across some sections of walls.

I had an environmental mold inspector take a look at it and give me some tips on how to remove it.

He said to use Hydrogen Peroxide. It's just as deadly to the mold but not nearly so dangerous to us as bleach, amonia, etc.

I bought 20 bottles and wiped down every surface in the house. No dilution. It worked perfectly and didn't leave a smell.

I'll bet it would work great in an express too, however if I were to sleep in the boat after wiping it with HP I'd research any possible ill effects since the space is so enclosed.
