Last winter, I burned 3 Yankee candles on my family room fireplace mantle. The damage from soot on the ceiling and walls was so great, it had to be cleaned prior to re-painting. Unfortunately for me, the room is so large (15' X 29'), I was unable to do the job by myself and, consequently, hired a disaster restoration company to do it for me. What did they use? The very same soot sponges I purchased. They worked so well that I can put off painting for another year. I used my sponges on the fireplace brick and, for the first time in many years, I once again like the look of the structure.

This product would probably work better on a fireplace that didn't have 30+ years of soot buildup. It did partially remove the buildup with a whole lot of elbo grease.

Honest reviews on Soot & Dirt Remover Sponge (K-42R)

I was in the cleaning and restoration industry for a bit, (IICRC certified for water, fire, smoke damage restoration) and this was the product they used to clean soot off the walls of fire damaged homes. While I do not know the brand the company used, its the same product.

If you have a candle and see the dark soot along the walls or ceilings, this is the product to use to clean it. Using a wet paper towel or Clorox wipes will SET the soot and stain the walls. My wife had a minor fire in the house, (was able to put it out, no one was hurt) and used Clorox wipes to clean the soot and now the soot is set into the paint. Now the area will need to be sealed and repainted (she didn't know any better, stuff happens).

Also, if you see corners of ceilings that have black spider webs, it is really a carbon chain of soot bonded ionically. Many people also assume the cobwebs they see in their homes are spider webs, when in reality, they are carbon chains of dust and dead skin cells.

We have a vent free propane fireplace and our walls were covered in soot, until we bought this sponge. No elbow grease needed, just wipe away. Our walls look so nice and clean now!
