Mildew - cushion foam

I have some cushions (v-berth) that have grey spots on them noticed when washing the covers. Is this mildew, and is there a viable treatment?
Thanks, Jim

I had good success with using Cascade (or any automatic dishwashing detergent) and washing cushions in hot water in the bathtub. You can add a little bleach if you want to but you''ll be getting some of that chlorine smell. The detergent gets the mold out and leaves a fresh smell.
