Cleaning walls - pets edition

[fernweh]

I doing some home improvements today I noticed ever wall in the house is embarrassingly dirty. We have 3 dogs so while I try and wipe walls regularly I think I just became blind to it for the most part.

I wiped everything with a bucket of soapy water and it helped but there is so much that won’t come off. Short of repainting what do I use to clean this?

Magic eraser?

Our walls desperately need to be repainted but it’s mostly because we have terrible quality matte paint. I would think a higher quality paint with some sheen would do ok with a quick swipe from magic eraser.

I love this stuff - it works really well

I don’t know why it’s showing it as $80?? It’s on Amazon for like $6

Another vote for Zep. I use that and a microfiber mop.

It does not, however, get the footprint marks off the top of my walls with cheap paint.. I've given up in that room since it will be repainted relatively soon.

Magic Eraser, and if there's snot or anything, spray it with hydrogen peroxide first, let sit, and then hit it with the Magic Eraser.
