The $30 Kmart hack one shopper calls 'best thing' for cleaning dirty walls

By Rachael Gavin|

W?alls aren't the easiest thing to clean, making mops the only way to get the job done quickly and efficiently.

But not all mops are suitable for the job and even if you do get a good flat mop, there's the issue of rinsing the dirty mop in the same water you're using to clean it.

An Aussie mum has found a solution with Kmart's 3-in-1 mop, which she says is the "best thing she's used for my walls".

Monique Popa showed how well the $30 mop worked to clean her walls in a video on her TikTok page @theorganisedeverydaymum.

?"The bucket has three different compartments, one is for the clean water where you dip the mop into, one is where the dirty water goes. It actually separates the dirty and the clean water, which is genius for cleaning walls so you aren't spreading dirty water back onto your walls," she said.

Popa added sugar soap and warm water to the mop bucket before dipping in the mop head and running the mop up and down her walls in long, smooth strokes.

"In my house I had flat skirting boards so it was easily cleaning those as well, I just ran it over the edge of the skirting board and win-win, means I don't have to now clean my skirting boards," Popa added.

The mop and sugar soap made quick work of the mum's walls ?and easily removed "grubby marks" from her toddlers' hands and her puppy's paw prints.

"So mums if you hate cleaning walls this is a solution for you," she said.

?The mop also had rave reviews from people who watched the video.

"?As a cleaner these are the best invention! I even use the mops to wash outside windows!" one said.

"?Yes this mop is amazing! I'm a cleaner and use it for the floors, ceilings and walls," another wrote.

The only downside to the mop according to people who have used it seems to be that there aren't replacement pads for the mop head.

"?The bucket is a good idea but getting spare pads is next to impossible," one said.
