How to clean a smudged wall?

[Shikha01]

 

I need some help fixing this wall. It had some dust on it, and I mistakenly tried cleaning it with a wet cloth, which made it worse. Can you help me fix it?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Shikha01. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about cleaning a wall.

You've started to clean that area, but in doing so, you have smeared the remaining dust around it and changed its appearance, making it look worse. I'd suggest you give the whole wall a good scrub down with Sugar Soap. With a bit of elbow grease you'll be able to remove all the dust and return it to a consistent finish.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
