Surfaces Items Routine Care Special Instructions
Wallpaper Wall Covering Washable Wallpaper
Test the washability of the surface by first washing an inconspicuous area. Use a special liquid wallpaper cleaner or a nonabrasive, all-purpose cleaner.

Nonwashable Wallpaper
Use a special product (ground art gum in a bag) or a dough wallpaper cleaner.
Start at the bottom of a wall and work up to the ceiling, overlapping areas as you clean and using a circular motion. In this way, any dirty streaks can be wiped off the clean areas and will not leave marks that are hard to remove.

Clean frequently to avoid a buildup of hard-to-remove soil.
