Hiya,
Someone on another site i visit has asked this, passing it along to see if any of you folks would have any ideas!
I've been told there is a special kind of soap / cleaner to deal with smoke damage from fires.
Like, an enormous fire and devastated paper covered ceilings.
Does anyone know of what you use in these situations?
(and yes the reason I'm asking is unfortunately exactly what it sounds like)
Thanks

Sugarsoap could be used to rmove some of the damage,but when our house burnt down last year,the builders and cleaners all said the only way to remove any smoke damage completely is to redecorate,NOTHING will get rid of the awful smell,half our house was rebuilt,the other redecorated,we still smell smoke every now and then,there isn't any original surface left!
Sorry couldn't help you more

DH and I do up houses and I tend to agree with livinginhope - your best bet is sugarsoap but it won't get rid of the smell. Best of luck to the people concerned though, it most be horrible for them0
