    Save time: Have multiple flat mop heads in clean water, enough water to dampen them, and drop the dirty ones in a separate bucket to be cleaned at the end of the project or day. In my custodian job, we used rectangular buckets with the clean mop heads lying stacked in cleaning solution so we could put the mop handle head directly onto the fresh mop head.

    This is almost exactly how we clean walls in the hospital. Of course we use different chemicals and we don’t wipe vertically, but starting at the top of the wall using horizontal strokes.

      A high quality Matte paint is actually fantastic and does have the ability to be cleaned to a degree. It's easy to paint over damage and spots after renters and such without any excessively shiny spots. However, should never use it in a kitchen or bathroom, that's just crazy. I mean... at minimum eggshell to repel grease and moisture and even then.

      Builders often use a lesser grade of paint with the expectation that the purchaser will paint using their preferred colours. There are different grades of paint available. Some offering exceptional performance and quality finishes that are scrubible in all finishes

      That's good to know. I'm currently cleaning out my mom's house after her death. Alllll of the walls have flat paint. And the long wall in the living room has all kinds of poster tack that she used to keep framed photos in place. It's dried out and is really stuck. I have a feeling that I will be learning to mud drywall before this is over.

      Semi gloss shows highlights every flaw on walls and, outside of kitchens and bathrooms, is usually reserved for trim. Go with satin or eggshell for most walls. You'll be able to clean it but have a nicer looking finish.

About 50/50: they either said “of course, every spring and fall!” Or “I’ve never heard of washing walls.” It was one or the other. No one said “I know I should, but I don’t.”
