It’s important to check for areas of dirt on a regular basis. You will most likely find it near cooking areas and anywhere that’s at hand height. Clean the surface with a mild detergent and a sponge, but try to avoid harsh, abrasive cleaners because they can dull the sheen of oil-based paint. Rinse washed surfaces thoroughly, as residual cleaners can make it hard for new paint to adhere to the surface later.
