how to clean walls

To clean walls effectively, start by dusting them with a soft brush or cloth to remove surface dust and cobwebs. Then prepare a cleaning solution: for general cleaning, mix warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap or liquid hand soap. For deeper cleaning, adding white vinegar or a bit of baking soda can be helpful. Use a soft sponge or microfiber cloth dampened (not soaked) with the solution to gently wash the walls in small sections, moving from top to bottom. Rinse immediately with clean water to avoid residue, and dry with a clean cloth. For tougher stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be applied gently. Avoid harsh chemicals especially on flat or matte finishes to prevent damage, and always test a small hidden area first. Protect floors with towels and be cautious around outlets and switches. This method works well for many wall types without damaging paint finishes.
