Firstly I would use a soft brush to get rid of as much as possible, then wash it with plain old water and let it dry thoughrily. Repeat if neccesary.

The best treatment for mildew is to get Milton sterilising fluid and use a 10% solution to treat the affected area. This kills the spores and stops the mould spreading - water alone will not do this.

However, some marking will remain and there is not much you can do about that as far as I know ( and I speak as one with a  mildew speckled mountain wear coat I stupidly forgot to dry and left bundled in the car boot!)
