Title: Sugar Soap
Post by jimcam on Feb 22^nd, 2006, 2:42pm

Does anyone use this stuff any more?

Is a bit of a sanding a better alternative for getting cr*p off the walls and giving them a key?

YEP!! and sugarsoap is more for DE-GREASING .. you should still lightly key old paint, especially gloss work!

(sorry Hammy for treading on ya tootsie's!)

Yup, it's made by Mangers. Washes the paint and gives a light key at the same time.

Perfect for washing off a nicotined stained ceiling, as long as you get someone else to do it. :)

£1.85 for 500ml.
