    Hi,
    Last year i painted the hallway and already there are alot of marks from handprints to black marks from bags, i was wondering if anyone could recommend a cleaning solution that i can use to wash the walls with that wont fade the paint, i want to avoid painting the walls again if possible.
    Thanks.

    You have done well getting away with a year after painting walls.Im sure you probably painted walls with a Matt finish,this kind of finish is not good if you wanted to wipe it when it becomes dirty.

    Im afraid that any kind of cleaning solution will mark walls after trying to wash off handprints etc.Your best bet is to either touch it up with the same paint you used or repaint with a washable finish.

    And even with a washable paint it can only take a light washing if it gets marked....
