Removing mold from LPs?

I was hoping you could share your experiences on what products (brand names or DIY) and/or processes have worked the best for you in removing mold from your LPs. I bought a SEALED LP that is 28 years old (that I already have a few copies of) and was all excited to hear a pristine version - just to open it and see it was embedded with what I believe is mold which didn't come off with a good cleaning with Disc Doctor fluid and my VPI 16.5 (and three rinses). It is definitely affecting the sound. Any ideas are appreciated!

Thanks everyone for the input. I think I will try the Buggtussel and see if that helps. The website photos look promising. And for the record Pbb, the American Heritage College Dictionary (3rd Ed.) lists the definition of "mold" as: "1. Any of various fungi that often causes disintegration of organic matter; 2. the growth of such fungi."

"Mould" as far as THIS part of the world (USA) is concerned, is the British variant of "mold."
