We always use sugar soap as well

[diddlydo]

Plain water and an E-cloth - magic!

[coccinelle]

Before repainting or just to clean?

[Connemmara]

just to clean - anyway is sugar soap - I mean do you need to wear rubber gloves using it.

[tonyav]

Yes wear rubber gloves Connemmara, otherwise it will make your hands sore.

As you now say it's just to wash and not prepare it for painting I think maybe just a household cleaner like Flash. Sugar soap may be ok but it could take the shine off the paint. Try it on a small piece first and use a very weak solution.

[Connemmara]

I think I will stick to the Flash as there is little shine on the doors - maybe some time this year get into some decorating which I loathe getting done.

Can I just say I just loved Flash powder loved it - it has all been watered now so to me there is no substance.
