What to do if stains appear

A regular eraser

If you have small children, they have probably tried at least once to turn the walls into a huge place for drawings. It is difficult to remove traces of office supplies.

However, you can try to rub them off with an eraser. It is worth remembering that for pencils and pens you need to buy a special version.

Old toothbrush

If you suddenly find an old stain on the wallpaper, it will be difficult to deal with it. You can try taking an old toothbrush. It should be dry.

Remove the stain mechanically. After that, you can lightly rinse the hard side of the sponge and wipe the problem area.

Bread vs. Fat
