~The Best Way to Clean Walls with Special Coverings

::Vinyl Wallcovering – Wash with a sponge and all-purpose spray cleaner. Solid vinyl is the sturdiest and most scrubbable, but this method should be safe for any coated covering – just test first in a hidden spot.

::Paper or Fabric Wallcovering – Generally not washable; pick up an art gum or dough-type eraser to gently rub out stains.

::Paneling – Try a cleaner that is specifically formulated for wood paneling. If the wood is unfinished, avoid water-based products.
