Save time: Have multiple flat mop heads in clean water, enough water to dampen them, and drop the dirty ones in a separate bucket to be cleaned at the end of the project or day. In my custodian job, we used rectangular buckets with the clean mop heads lying stacked in cleaning solution so we could put the mop handle head directly onto the fresh mop head.

[@timdasenbrock7363]

This is almost exactly how we clean walls in the hospital. Of course we use different chemicals and we don’t wipe vertically, but starting at the top of the wall using horizontal strokes.

Nice! My mom worked in the ER cleaning for many years. Thank you for all your hard work!

Love you all. Long time hospital nurse here. Housekeeping is essential and amazing. Thank you.❤

[@philipcook8298]

The end is very validating as someone who sells paint! Everyone wants to put flat and matte in their bathrooms of all places and you'd be surprised how hard it is to convince people it's super impractical in general 😂

[@ich8159]

The apartment I am currently living in has them and it’s a nightmare. I found dusting and steam cleaning doesn’t completely clean them, especially close to radiators and the only way is to repaint. 😢

[@amca2421]

@phillipcoo what is the best paint for the bathroom? Mine always ends up with oil stains over time.

[@AltruisticWarrior]

A high quality Matte paint is actually fantastic and does have the ability to be cleaned to a degree. It's easy to paint over damage and spots after renters and such without any excessively shiny spots. However, should never use it in a kitchen or bathroom, that's just crazy. I mean... at minimum eggshell to repel grease and moisture and even then.

[@trinaneveri]

I HATE flat paint. I wouldn’t use it for anything but a ceiling. It’s impossible to clean.

[@amberthompson1596]

This was super helpful! I also appreciate you linking the products (I'm happy to contribute to affiliate links). I need to wash walls in a rental and having a mop that 'locks' in place is super helpful and going to save me tons of time.

[@RemyNas24]

Dusting the walls first prevents sludge water

[@richoneplanet7561]

A 'wall mop kit' is so helpful and not very expensive. I've spent time cleaning walls / ceilings to brighten the house for spring. It it makes a big difference. Great video

[@xinnasinpatria3202]

You must have to try this technique with big glass windows, life changing 😊

[@richoneplanet7561]

@@xinnasinpatria3202 oh geez, great idea - I will try that 👍🏻

[@emmerypoppleton7921]

Excellent timing!! I'm deep cleaning before a trip this weekend and I've been trying to figure out how to do the walls!

[@CleanThatUp]

Love to hear it, happy cleaning!

[@TraciRene]

This was validating. I have flat paint all over my home (from the renovators) and knew it was pointless. I'll have to repaint the whole house with semi gloss.

[@AltruisticWarrior]

The renovators failed to do a good job then. Any decent minded construction crew will take care to have proper dust control methods in place, in a finished home with occupants.

[@TraciRene]

@@AltruisticWarrior I was a 1st time home buyer and had no clue that house flippers are trifling. They painted the whole house flat even bathrooms which I've already repainted.

[@abh9872]

Don’t use semi gloss as it will show every flaw. Use eggshell or satin if not in kitchen or bathrooms.

[@TraciRene]

@@abh9872 thanks!

[@user-lk3wu3lr5u]

Builders often use a lesser grade of paint with the expectation that the purchaser will paint using their preferred colours. There are different grades of paint available. Some offering exceptional performance and quality finishes that are scrubible in all finishes

Curious about wood paneled walls if you consider a part 2. Thanks for the video, cheers 🎉

[@ds7675]

I dust with a Swiffer and clean with a wet Swiffer. And no drying the wall. I’m lazy that way. 😂

[@Moving_Forward247]

Excellent video God bless you!

[@priz1997]

The zep wall cleaner has been awesome on my flat painted walls to spot clean. Only way to tackle gardening handprints all over the walls next to doors. Every door. All over the house. How??? 😂😂😂

[@CleanThatUp]

That’s awesome, I love that stuff!

[@kathywiseley4382]

That's good to know. I'm currently cleaning out my mom's house after her death. Alllll of the walls have flat paint. And the long wall in the living room has all kinds of poster tack that she used to keep framed photos in place. It's dried out and is really stuck. I have a feeling that I will be learning to mud drywall before this is over.

[@institches2750]

​@@kathywiseley4382 Mudding little spots like that isn't too hard. Just make sure you get the stuff off first. Much easier to fill a gouge from scraping than to float out a lump of sticky stuff.

[@SamuelsReview]

I've been using rubbing alcohol for scuffs. I will try out the Zepp cleaner, probably much better for the walls 😊

[@FionaSmith-nz5hb]

Thanks 🤩 amazing tips as always 🤩

[@CleanThatUp]

You got it, thanks so much for watching!

Great video, thank you

[@Ashley-tk7ks]

[@petito2547]

Thank you for the helpful advices! I especially appreciate the end because I have flat paint walls. I will keep in mind that next time need semi gloss walls

[@tiawilliams5690]

Semi gloss shows highlights every flaw on walls and, outside of kitchens and bathrooms, is usually reserved for trim. Go with satin or eggshell for most walls. You'll be able to clean it but have a nicer looking finish.

[@elizabethtaylor3779]

Good morning! Thanks for this helpful info; really appreciate the suggestion for the lock-head mop. I have one, but it doesn't have a locking mechanism so I spend half the time fighting the swiveling head ☹

Love your videos it’s a shame I’m in the UK and can’t get half of these products in our supermarkets like Zep x

[@dccd673]

Aw. And here I was thinking maybe the Zep product could possibly remove the stain caused by new, although washed first, bed sheets then I remembered the paint on the wall is flat. I’m in a rental so I have no idea what paint brand and colour was used.

[@DebbieTDP]

I use a degreaser on a damp microfiber cloth. Elbow grease works better than a flat mop. 😅 Furthermore not all paints are washable 😂 even if "shiny"

[@jaymanatee5863]

Thanks for sharing. Does this included walls with some build up in the bathroom?

[@donnaadams5217]

Hi love the videos i have a question hoping some of you could help how to get urine smell out of plywood as somebody had a accident😂😂 before i get the new flooring thx

[@KateRVN]

Do you have any suggestions for cleaning emulsion paint. We don’t have a banister rail on the stairs and we get grease marks in spots as folk use their hands against the wall as they go up and down. Many thanks.

Wondering why the spray cleaner was needed at all. Just a damp flat mop would have done the trick, no? Still learning here so tell me if the sprayed cleaner made a difference.

Put a small amount of clorox-About a tablespoon and about 1/2 teaspoon of Dawn--let soak in container for about an hour--with hot water---wash out and stains should disappear

I have to admit, that i did not once in my life even hear anyone talk about washing your walls 😬 Is that an American thing to do? We paint our walls about every three years and before that might dust them 🙈

[@bethreiners5568]

I took care of a gal in her 80’s who broke her back washing her walls. I’d never heard of it either! So I asked many people if they washed their walls. About 50/50: they either said “of course, every spring and fall!” Or “I’ve never heard of washing walls.” It was one or the other. No one said “I know I should, but I don’t.”
