    For a more effective scrub, use Easy Off. Easy Off is a professional, heavy-duty cleaner that can cut through dirt, grime, and mold on most surfaces. Apply the chemical to your shower and wait three minutes. Then, clean the mold and use hot water to rinse it away. Use adequate ventilation because Easy Off can leave a strong odor.
