Bought pack of 2 Magic Eraser Sponges from Wilkinsons for £1.
My yellow fuse box on the wall is now white and I even removed brown heat marks from my marble fireplace after trying for months!

That reminds me a story that a relative told me years ago. They'd emigrated to Australia, one of the last of the £10 Poms. When they were buying stuff for the kids starting school they needed stationery and went in a shop for some rubbers.
But in Australia they call them erasers, rubbers are something else.

My Cousin was in the Marines and brought his Chinese Bride back to England.
She asked my Aunt to take her to a Chemist.
They went to Boots and she asked for Dulux The assistant replied that they did not sell paint much to the amusement of other Staff and Customers.

Don't go mad on painted walls though - once is OK in a small area, but it does remove some of the paint too and leaves a visible mark.

I did try Boots, but it came out of the lace holes.

Seconded- especially if you've painted using a sprayer or live in a new build where the developers did. The paint is often very thin and I 'erased' the paint in our old flat with very light use of one of these.

Other than that, I think they're very good!
