What is the best way to remove black soot from my walls?

Answer by  Alli (71)

Start by removing loose soot using a clean, damp washrag. Seondly, use a white magic eraser and rub lightly over the soot marks. Pieces of the eraser will flake off, but know that this is a normal part of the cleaning process. Finally, use a clean, damp washrag again to wipe off any eraser flakes.

Wash with water as hot as you can stand to touch, Use 1 part bleach 1 part murphys oil soap 2 parts water. Use a bucket of plain hot water to rinse the wall before and after you wash. Use a mop with a towel base to make the job easier.

Use a wire-bristled brush dipped in a solution of warm water and biological washing powder to remove black soot from walls. Rub the stained areas vigorously, moving the brush in small circles. A combination of lemon juice, vinegar and rock salt can also work well if applied in the same way.
