- Provide barrier protection for walls before painting them! If there are flaws in the corners, filling these areas with a crack sealant will keep the wall’s appearance even. Otherwise it will be difficult to achieve a lasting colour over the rough stains.
- You can also opt for anti-stain varnishes on the walls.

- If you have the non-washable wall paint with Holi colour stains, firstly soak the wet colour stains with a tissue paper and then apply a baking soda and water paste on the stained areas. Now let it dry for 15 minutes. Next, you can gently clean up the paste and the stains with a soft, micro fibre cloth. Rub the cloth on the wall in a circular motion until the colours are gone.
- You can renovate the walls with an after-Holi touch-up. In case you skipped our pre-Holi steps, your walls are washed with colours everywhere, you can go for a touch-up. While you can DIY your wall paint, you must go with professional painters if there are stubborn marks and irregular stains.
