Black mold in bathroom, how to fix damaged drywall?
I have been removing the wallpaper from a bathroom and as I was peeling off the section near the edge of the ceiling, I saw some of the ceiling paint bubbling. I scraped some off to find black mold.
I cleaned the mold with a vinegar solution.
My question is what is the next step? Should I paint the damaged area with anti-mold primer or use something like Zinsser Gardz to seal the damaged drywall? Is there a product that does both? Then skim coat?
Thanks!
