The bottom of my walls are littered with tiny hand prints. I tried yesterday using warm water a little soap and a sponge. It worked a little, but they're still messy. Can you recommend a product that will clean them up?

Re: how to clean my walls.
You probably need more than just a "little" soap. Hand prints can be greasy, so I would recommend something like a liquid all purpose cleaner in hot water. There are plenty of cleaners on the market to choose from.You can try a Magic Eraser, but it will remove paint from your walls if you scrub too hard.
Or, you can spray it with something like 409, or Fantastic, and spot clean it with a wet rag.
I skip the Magic Eraser at my house. I've noticed too many spots where the paint looks different due to it!
I use 2 capfuls of spic and span in a large bucket of hot water with a sponge! It's my first spring cleaning ritual! Works fabulously!
Good luck!
Has anyone ever used a bucket with cleaner/water and a mop on the walls?
or does a rag and elbow grease work better?
-goo be gone
-water & a touch of dawn
I should've clarified...by soap, I meant dish soap. It didn't really work all that well, but maybe i need dawn or something that cuts the grease?
Definitely the magic eraser! It gets rid of EVERYTHING!
