Upon closer inspection, I realized this was not white rock salt residue, but some sort of mold. I also then realized that specs of it were also growing on the side of my car. Has anyone else had experience with this? It's kind of freaking me out! What kind of mold grows in this weather! And so quickly! So, I bought some regular Mold & Mildew remover and sprayed the hell out of my garage floor. Hopefully, it will kill it off.   tjohn Citizen Username: Tjohn Post Number: 2908 Registered: 12-2001 Posted on Sunday, February 6, 2005 - 7:31 am:        How thick is it?   Mr. Big Poppa Citizen Username: Big_poppa Post Number: 47 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Sunday, February 6, 2005 - 9:25 am:        It's only a thin film except on the edges where it is about 1/4 in thick.   tjohn Citizen Username: Tjohn Post Number: 2909 Registered: 12-2001 Posted on Sunday, February 6, 2005 - 3:01 pm:        It's not mold. It's a mineral deposit from salt.   Mr. Big Poppa Citizen Username: Big_poppa Post Number: 48 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Sunday, February 6, 2005 - 4:44 pm:        Are you sure? That's what I thought at first, but then it grew. I sprayed it with the Mold & Mildew agent and scrub it and it seems to have worked, for now anyway. I hope it was just mineral deposit.}   tjohn Citizen Username: Tjohn Post Number: 2912 Registered: 12-2001 Posted on Sunday, February 6, 2005 - 5:39 pm:        Yes, I have the same stuff in my garage.
