Description: Easily remove grease from your painted kitchen walls with these tips from our readers.

Tip #1: Try using K2R spot remover. I am a property manager and have used it on wallpaper and it removed 90% of the grease marks. They are barely noticeable now.
Tip #2: Dollar General sells a cleaner called Mean Green I have used it to get grease off of everything. Paint, clothes (as there is a mechanic in the House) woodwork, floors, etc. I haven't had it remove paint yet. This is the best cleaner I have ever found. And it is cheap $2.50 for a good sized bottle!
Tip #3: When I was removing the wallpaper border in my kitchen, I used a solution of 1/2 vinegar and 1/2 water. A friend recommended I use warm water for better results and I was amazed to find it removed the grease as well as the paper!
Tip #4: The tip I am commenting about is the "Vinegar and Water" solution
for cleaning off grease splatter on walls.
This tip worked wonderfully! I can hardly tell the grease marks are
still there; the look is now MUCH cleaner!
Thanks alot!...Crystal
Tip #5:: Vinegar + Water. Two thumbs up for this suggestion. It cleaned muck of the stains from my wall with only minimal effort.
Important: After cleaning with vinegar + water, rub with *dry* towel...Aravind
Tip #6: I've used a strong vinegar water solution but recently I discovered Dawn Power Dissolver, for dishes. It cleans everything! Just spray on, let it set for a minute and it comes right off. I use it to clean my range hood where that dust and grease mixture is impossible to remove, works like a charm. I use it to clean my stove top too...Angela
Tip #7: "Greased Lightening" is excellent for removing grease from the stove or what may have splattered onto cabinets or countertops. Greased Lightening can be purchased from nearly every grocery store, or at least from Walmart or target, or similar stores...Sarah
Tip #8: Although I'm mostly using vinegar to clean with these days I still resort to Dow Scrubbing Bubbles for tough, old grease. It works great whether for ring around the tub, grease on kitchen walls, or elsewhere.
