To Remove Scuff Marks From Walls

1. Try removing the scuff from the wall as soon as it happens, using a large pencil eraser first. While it may take several tries, see if the scuff mark relents at all

2. If the scuff mark doesn't start to disappear, use a soft-heeled shoe like a flat orthopedic shoe, on the wall in the reverse way the scuff was made. Try using a test piece of the scuff first before spreading it across the entire abrasion of the wall. Sometimes, the rubber can act as an eraser or other times it can make it worse. So use with caution.

3. Using a wet washcloth or sponge, scrub the wall for about 30 seconds to see if the scuff begins to disappear. Usually, if a wall is easy to scuff, it will be easily cleaned with water. Another hint this tip will work is if the wall paint feels gritty but does not have a gritty composition.

4.Use a small amount of non-abrasive soap on the wall, with your wet sponge. Sometimes, a little soap on flat paint or semi-gloss will remove the scuff mark without removing the paint.

5. If you have a textured wall or ceiling, gently use a wet Brillo pad instead of a washcloth for wall-washing.

If none of these tips works, chances are have a deeper scratch instead of a wall scuff. This can best be fixed by painting or calling a maintenance professional.

If you have another color under your paint, be very careful while scrubbing as it may reveal itself. Also be aware if paint comes off on your sponge, washcloth, or Brillo pad as this may make paint lighter in that particular area from now on."
