Guest briansmum Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 i know i havent commented much, but i am reading through everything i promise. i'm also catching up on questions LOL anyway... anyone got any tips for getting food splatter staines off the walls? i live in a rented house and the landlady was very nice about me getting brian, but i dont think she'll be very pleased with the mess on the wall by his cage. she'd due to come for a visit soon and i dardn't do anything because i dont want to ruin the paint. the walls are just basic underlay plain wallpaper, then painted with matt paint. if i have to i will repaint the walls but i was hoping it wouldnt come to that LOL help... if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronda477 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 There is this stuff called "Goof off" Now you will have to take Brian out of the room but it works sooooo well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makena Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I find that getting it wet with a little soapy water, then letting it sit for a while does wonders. Wipes right off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaFawkes Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I have the dull flat paint and also live in a rented house...now I have like a million birds;) and my walls get VERY dirty!!! I just use vinegar water and wipe it lightly, it doesnt really mess up the paint either. The other thing I use is those Magic erasers from MR.CLEAN...oh man those things are amazing!!! They take EVERYTHING off the walls...the even take scuffs off shoes!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE them!! They have been my lifesaver here!!!:silly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auntiebethd Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I agree-Mr. Clean Magic Erasers (or even the Walmart brand) are AMAZING! All I have to do is wet them (no cleaners required) and they take EVERYTHING off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I use bleach on the walls or the goo-gone stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendy75 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 i had same problem,i went to my hardware store and bought a small sheet of clear perspex and put it up the wall at the cage area only,now no more mess,a cloth and a simple wipe down with warm soapy water,all clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Thats what I am going to have to do. Get the perspex after I have decorated. I have three walls which are fine and Charlies wall which is cream with pink splatters all over. Good idea Wendy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendy75 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 no probs it works well for me.and its a bit of a money saver,lol no painting for a while.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaya_the_elf Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Well if its really bad, you would put some like plastic mat or sort of safe glass up on the wall, and nail it where ever the bird is the most. As for cleaning it off, i know magic easers does pretty good job with almost anything, then just soapy water sometimes might work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest briansmum Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 thanks for the tips.. i'll look out for those magic erasers, i have seen them before. i thought about getting the perspexk but brians cage is sooo big and he throws stuff so far i'd pretty much have to cover the entire wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
