Will these clean the walls?

imnoemilydi+ckinson · January 2012

We have a lot of black marks on our walls. I am not really sure why but I want to clean them this week. Do you think magic erasers will do the job? I have had luck with them in other ways. If not, any suggestions? We have company coming soon and I want my walls white! TIA!

Yes, they should clean black marks off of walls.

I would suggest starting with an area that isn't very noticeable; depending on your paint finish, you may be able to see a difference between the cleaned area and the rest of the wall, so you'll want to make sure you're happy with it before you end up with visible patches of "clean" on your wall (or end up scrubbing the whole wall!).

They will take the marks off. They will also take some of the paint off. So, you might be able to see, as PP said, where you used them. I find that they are good in situations where nothing else works, if applied with a light hand and as little water as possible. I also like the normal, rather than heavy duty or scrubber varieties, for this task. GL!

This. We made the mistake of using it on a dark wall and some of the paint came off.
