removal of oily blutack blobs prior to repainting
Hi all
We're about to delve into the kids bedrooms for a bit of an Easter freshen up ~ the painted walls are covered with oily blobs from the blutack that held their posters up ~ Any suggestions as to the best method to prep the walls prior to repainting would be most appreciated.. Cheers & Happy Easter MJ |

A bit of rag saoked with a little cigarette lighter fluid will degrease the spots.
