- 1). Cover the furniture and floor with a drop cloth. This will not only protect the furniture, but also keep you from having to clean the entire room when you are finished.
- 2). Don safety goggles to protect your eyes from falling dust and debris.
- 3). Use a feather duster to wipe away dust and cobwebs from the ceiling panel. You may also wish to use the brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to gently clean the ceiling panel to help further remove the dirt.
- 4). Dab the water stained area of the ceiling panel with a soft dry sponge. If the water stain is new or on a painted surface, this is often all that is needed to clean it.
- 5). Fill a bucket with a solution of ½ cup bleach and 1/3 cup of washing powder with a gallon of warm water. Put on latex gloves to protect skin and use the safety goggles to protect the eyes.
- 6). Apply the mixture to the ceiling panel with a damp sponge. Dab the water stain with the sponge. Do not rub the ceiling panel or apply too much force. Allow the ceiling panel to dry.
