Notice I'm not putting this into the Pesach section. Wink

Use the Miracle Eraser. With a bit of water. It is works literally like magic! Scuff marks and other marks that have been on my walls for the last couple of years because nothing helped (from Mr. Clean to Bon Ami to the harsher Comet or Tilex)

Happy cleaning!

Anon cuz I'm telling everyone about this IRL.

It work's great but it's a sure way to go through packs and packs of those. LOL
They seem to fall apart or get too dirty to use way too quickly.

While I agree the eraser works, you have to be careful with it because it does take off paint.

Not to rain on your parade, so to speak, but I found using a rag dipped in baking soda does the same job.

I have done both ways though, depending if I am washing only one spot or the whole wall/thing.

Hasn't worked for me in the past.

Fantastic with bleach is excellent for walls! It doesn't leave a residue. But specifically for scuff marks the eraser is the best.

I've found that the absolute best is the eraser with a little Fantastik (or similar).

Wait? does it take off paint or not? Does anyone else besides the poster who mentioned it, who use this eraser find that it takes off paint?
How about if I have a wall with painted on design on it. should I not risk using it?

If you rub too hard it will take off paint. You shouldn't need to rub that hard.

I found it to leave a white residue on walls painted a color other than cream or white, so make sure to wash it off. other than that, it really is a miracle worker! Smile
