Does anyone have any suggestions to remove what appears to be black mold/mildew/fungus from the camper roof. So far I have used Murphy's soap and Simple-Green, plus a great deal of elbow grease and although I did remove the normal grit and grime from the roof and lightened the appearance of the mole/mildew/fungus, but they still remain. I have a 2021 R-Pod 196 and assume that the roof is TPO. I am reluctant to use bleach due to the possibility of harming the roof. Any suggestions?

I have tried several specialty cleaners on our rubber roof, and none completely removed the black mildew stains. So I tried a bleach/water solution and this worked. However I don't want to keep using bleach on the rubber roof, so if you find a product that works for the black mildew, please post here.

Thanks!
