Any tips on removing wallpaper paste once it has dried on the

wallpaper? It's the paste for prepasted wallpaper. The shiny streaks

and spots are driving me crazy. Thanks!

I have not had the problem, but I'll bet some surfaces are a real pain
to clean up.

Water with just a hint of soap (maybe car washing soap) should do it.
Lots of clean water rinse without really wetting the walls.

Lots of hot water. Let it sit for a few minutes & towel it off.
