**How to Remove Oil from Kitchen Walls: Easy Tips for a Spotless Space**
Cooking can be a joyful experience, but it often leaves behind stubborn oil splatters on your kitchen walls. Over time, these grease stains can accumulate, creating a sticky, grimy mess. Thankfully, with the right techniques and tools, you can easily restore your walls to their original clean state. Here’s a step-by-step guide to removing oil from kitchen walls.

### **Why Do Oil Stains Stick to Walls?**
When you cook, tiny droplets of oil disperse into the air and settle on nearby surfaces, especially walls near the stove. Over time, this oil hardens, trapping dirt and grime, which makes it harder to clean.

### **Steps to Remove Oil from Kitchen Walls**
#### **Step 1: Prepare the Cleaning Solution**
Combine warm water with a few drops of grease-cutting dish soap in a bowl. If the stains are stubborn, mix equal parts of white vinegar and warm water in a spray bottle for added power.
#### **Step 2: Test a Small Area**
Before cleaning the entire wall, test your solution on a small, inconspicuous area to ensure it won’t damage the paint or finish.
#### **Step 3: Apply the Solution**
– For light stains: Dip a soft sponge or cloth into the soapy water and gently scrub the stained area.
– For stubborn stains: Spray the vinegar solution directly onto the greasy spots and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to break down the oil.
#### **Step 4: Add Baking Soda for Extra Power**
If the stains persist, sprinkle a small amount of baking soda onto a damp sponge and scrub the greasy area. The gentle abrasiveness of baking soda works wonders on hardened grease.
#### **Step 5: Rinse and Wipe Dry**
After scrubbing, wipe the area with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue. Finish by drying the wall with a microfiber cloth to prevent streaks.
**Step 6: Use a Magic Eraser (Optional)**
For particularly tough grease stains, a magic eraser can be an effective tool. Wet the eraser and gently rub it over the stains, being cautious not to over-scrub, which can damage the paint.
