For example, they take a ballpoint pen and immediately begin to draw something on the wallpaper. Many parents are familiar with this problem. And I also know that the paste from a ballpoint pen is extremely difficult to remove or remove. In this example, everything was removed without unnecessary difficulties and the wallpaper was restored to almost its original appearance.

    The author apparently was a nerd in life and never got two marks out of his diary! Oh, not all inks lend themselves to whiteness! Moreover, a ballpoint pen also simply presses the paper well. And to be honest, few wallpapers can withstand bleach without damaging their appearance; most likely the effect will be more visible than the picture itself ;)
    Here we can only advise one thing - to leave the remaining wallpaper in reserve, and even better, if children are expected, immediately take 1-2 more rolls and simply re-glue the damaged area.

      The author has vinyl wallpaper. The paper ones would fall apart from the bleach.

    A milamine sponge is great, but only if the surface is washable!
