Chemical Sponge, Dry Cleaning Sponge - Remove Soot From Walls Easily - Soot Remover

This product is amazing, I can't believe it worked so well, we burnt a lot of candles over the winter months last year to save on our energy bills hence our whitewalls had turned a dirty grey, given you use the sponge dry I couldn't believe the way it removed the soot from our walls, it worked so well we wont need to repaint the lounge this year after all.

The chemical sponge was good. It was great for soot removal.

I brought this to get the soot off my ceiling, a waste of time and money, didn't work, I wouldn't bother wasting your money

I ordered this sponge to clean candle soot marks off my wall as all info seemed to suggest normal wet cleaning would smear it. It worked well for a light mark, but didn't do anything for the heavier mark, even though I tried rubbing at all angles, directions and different pressures. Also as I was rubbing, little pieces of the sponge started flaking off and going everywhere. Might be useful for you if your marks are superficial, but not recommended beyond that. I ended up using my usual all purpose cleaning spray and microfibre cloth, being careful to wipe in downward motions to avoid smearing, and that worked way better!

I was really surprised by how well this sponge worked on light soot stains from candles. We burn a lot of candles and sooty grime does accumulate on the walls and ceiling. I recently moved some framed pictures which revealed the dreaded soot outline in perfect rectangles. The sponge dealt with these marks easily. Usually I would make more of a mess trying to clean these types of stains but the dry sponge was a revelation. I ended up doing the whole wall which took less than 5 minutes but I could clearly see where the sponge had effectively removed the layers of soot. I have not used on heavy stains but after the picture frame “shadow” success I tried above a radiator where some staining had developed. This was not as successful but still an improvement on traditional cleaning.

I was skeptical about this sponge as it looks like just a sponge, but, I have been really impressed with how well it took the candle soot off of the walls and ceilings. It got dirty really quickly and I thought that it would then just smear the soot around, but it kept cleaning and cleaning and even at the point I though it wouldn't remove any more soot, it kept cleaning. I have now washed it out and it hasn't cleaned out at much as I expected (Still looks quite grubby). I am waiting for it to dry to see how well it works second time around.

We had a large candle in our living room, didn't realise the amount of soot it would give off. Used this sponge on the walls & ceiling and am amazed at the results. Important: use the sponge dry, do not wet it.

These are fantastic!!! I used them on my ceiling as I had been burning candles and over time I had patches of imbedded smoke. Sugar soap didn't work but these did the trick, bought two and would highly recommend.
