Content: Getting rid of the smell and the tar takes some effort, but it is not a lost cause. Cleaning and Prep
Step 1
Remove all furniture, pictures and window coverings from the room you need to clean. Cover the entire floor with plastic or painter's dropcloth. Seal the plastic at the bottom of the baseboards. The dropcloth prevents damage to floor coverings from the tar and cigarette stains that run down the walls and drip from the ceiling during cleaning. Step 2
Set up the stepladder to reach the ceiling and top of the walls. Put on your rubber gloves and safety glasses. Fill 1 bucket with the soot remover. Fill a second bucket with hot soapy water and a third bucket with hot water. Dip your sponge mop into the bucket of soot remover and squeeze out the excess.
