  • How to clean grease and tobacco off of a kitchen ceiling and what to use to clean different levels of grease and grime from a kitchen ceiling. I mixed the Simple Green 1:1 with water. I mentioned in the video that I used Husky 901, however, it is an industrial cleaning product and as such, it is very difficult to find. It is sold through commercial janitorial distributors. It can be found online but not readily. For this reason, I recommend that you use Simple Green (link below) or any other degreaser that you can find.

    If you have struggled to clean and keep clean the tops of kitchen cabinets that are open on top - a poor decorative design but it is what it is. Once clean, I lay down bar cloths which are the perfect size to cover this, usually rough area. Next time I clean my cabinets I just remove the cloths and launder them. Then I just have to clean any exposed edges. Most cabinets like these have some sort of moulding such as cove or spindles which clean up easily but hide the cloths on top of the cabinets. I have this type of cabinetry in the kitchen, laundry and bathrooms. Must have been all the rage back in the 80's! BTW, I purchase used cloths for this purpose. No way am I paying new price for essentially dirt grabbers that can sit there for months.

    • @tomtroszak
      @tomtroszak Рік тому +1

      Dear @magno, If your flat acrylic ceiling paint is not super greasy, for a few bucks you can try cleaning a remote corner using a vulcanized rubber sponge, also know as a Soot Sponge, Soot Eraser, etc. If you are going to do a whole ceiling you will need several sponges. If your ceiling is too smeary for that to work, you could try a pro drysteam/vacuum extractor service but that might cost several hundred bucks, and still leave ugly marks. It costs nothing to ask them if they do flat finish paint/ceilings. If the soot eraser sponge or steam doesn't work 100% - the least costly option might be to degrease as per this video, and see how it looks. 99.999% likely it will look awful, but it will now be clean enough to repaint.😃Yay! If so, just repaint with satin or high gloss. But please don't just paint over the filth, or 6 months later you'll be sorry when it starts peeling. Then you have peeling paint on top of greasy paint. At that point it's probably cheaper/easier just to replace the sheetrock ceiling, and start over. And never use flat finish paint again.😉 Good Luck! Tom.

    • @tomtroszak
      @tomtroszak Рік тому

      Flat finish "paint" is pretty much just a heavily tinted primer.🙄 Maybe you could call it a cheap base coat for a more expensive semi-gloss (or high gloss) PAINT that you can actually scrub clean occasionally, but that's it. Otherwise, try to resist the *temptation* to call it "paint." That's how you know it's made by the devil😈and endorsed by satan himself. So if you value your soul, just... don't.🤬

      @@tomtroszak I've degreased it with sugar soap, and it worked extremely well. Unfortunately, I had to touch up the paint. Luckily, with Zinsser BIN + sanding + the same self-leveling acrylic flat paint (2 coats) + microfibre roller, the touch up paint blended in 100% with the rest of the ceiling!! I honestly cannot tell with my eye that there's a patch of touch up paint. I couldn't have wished for a better outcome!
      Also, repainting the whole ceiling would've been much worse especially with reflective paint like satin or high gloss because my kitchen, living, and dining area are in the same space. So, that could have been a BIG blurry mirror with satin or high gloss paint!

    • @HowToCleanLikeAPro
      @HowToCleanLikeAPro  Рік тому +1

      I’m not overly concerned with toxic vs. non-toxic cleaning products because the chemical industry is not required to disclose what they put in their products. They can put just about anything they want in a bottle and call it non-toxic so you really don’t know what you’re getting. Simple Green has been selling butyl for decades and calling it environmentally responsible. In my experience the legit non-toxic cleaners are only good for wiping down counters and cleaning up spills. When you need to cut through thick build ups of grease and grime sometimes you just have to go with tried and true cleaners that work fast. The faster they work the faster you can be done using them and reduce your exposure. This isn’t the answer that you wanted but I think everyone needs to know that they can’t trust the labels on their cleaning supplies.

      Bioclean and Seventh generation may well make nontoxic products but again they’re not required to tell you what is in their products so you just have to trust that their marketing team is being honest. Dish soap cuts through grease, that’s true, they use dawn to clean up birds after oil spills. I don’t know why everyone loves vinegar so much. It has no real cleaning value and adding it to an alkaline cleaner like dish soap is only going to diminish the efficacy of the dish soap. Hydrogen peroxide is a great stain remover but it’s not going to cut through grease on a kitchen ceiling.
