Tiny bungalow in MO. I painted the kitchen with Lucite semi-gloss about
20 years ago. No chip, peel, little/no fading. But, of course, it's dirty.
Not super-bad, but dirty enough that it streaks badly when a spot is
cleaned.

I don't wanna re-paint. I got a roll-a-matic mop, tried "Grease Relief"
and Mr. Clean on it. Mr. Clean cleaned most of a test area, but the
1954 plaster-on-steel-lathe is a little rough, and some spots won't
clean. "Grease Relief" wasn't up to the task at all.

Sooooooooooooo, what's the best way to clean dirt/grease off of a good
semi-gloss paint finish?

Thx,

A heavy duty detergent will clean walls. Mr Clean is a good cleaner
and should clean walls well, and the tough areas use Fantastic. If
you can find it use TSP. Rinse the walls at least 2 times. Use
rubber gloves and eye protection.
