How do I clean up wall after surfactant leaching?

Question

Jewellmartin · Answer

Use a mild cleanser like a quart of warm water with a squirt of Dawn. Use a spray bottle, a sponge or a cloth to clean the residue off the walls. If they are glossy, use a dry cloth to remove any streaks. Happy Valentines Day!

Wash the affected area with soap and water, and rinse. The discoloration may occur once or twice again before the surfactant is completely removed. When paint is applied in a bathroom, it should dry thoroughly before using the bath or shower. Remove as much staining as possible before repainting.
