The spring cleaning is a bit late, if he has not started, but better late than never. If nothing else, you've probably swapped your shirts for shirts and shot your faux fur for another point. But I bet you did not think about cleaning your walls . Well, here is a guide on how to do it, depending on the type of color you have.
To do this you first need a bucket, a sponge or a microfibre cloth, dishwashing liquid, distilled vinegar and water.
How to clean walls that are covered with flat paint
Matt varnish is less durable than other varnishes, which means it's easier to damage, and that's the last thing to do. For walls with flat paint, special care is required. For each cleaning, carefully remove the sponge and use a very mild soapy solution with detergent. Above all, do not use vinegar in this solution. Use only dishwashing liquid and water.
How to clean surfaces covered with semi-gloss varnish.
Silk matt is a little bit more durable, so bring some dish soap, but not too much. It is better to use a soft sponge for this type of paint and still turn completely to leave no marks on the walls.
How to clean walls covered with oil paint
Oil paints are even more durable than silky matt colors. Therefore, be sure to use vinegar and soap to rinse dishes in this solution. This solution is perfect if you have an oil-based paint in your kitchen as it helps to remove grease and dirt.
How to clean walls covered with latex paint
If you clean the walls with latex paint, you will want to add detergent and distilled white vinegar to your solution. You can use a little of either or just two tablespoons of vinegar or three tablespoons if you know you need elbow grease.
No matter what kind of paint you have on the wall, half fill the bucket and never use more than a few drops of dish soap. Some alternatives: Castile soap instead of detergent, a microfibre cloth instead of a sponge and a long-handled brush with soft bristles for hard to reach places. Just make sure everything you use for cleaning is not wet: you want all the water to drain off and get a little wet.
Here is a nice table that summarizes all the important information for cleaning and cleaning your walls. Good cleaning!
