Swarfega Wipes
A friend of mine has just had her living room and hall painted and
wants to get the muck,mainly nicotine as she is a smoker,off the light pendant cables and the insulation covering the central heating pipes where they enter the floor ( pre-insulated pipe)......The painter suggested Swarfega Wipes which I had never heard of..I had previously suggested JIF Cream Cleaner but she tried that and said it didnt work but maybe she wasn't rubbing hard enough .Anyone tried these wipes .??

I find cables easy to clean using fairy liquid and pan cleaning scourers. |
