Does anyone know what is "sugar soap" in French - i.e. the equivalent. It's not "savon de sucre", I know that much! What should I ask for in Bricomarche or Mr. Bricolage?

Sorry if this is a dumb query, but I have never used, or seen, sugar soap either. It is recommended for cleaning out wall tiles prior to painting.

Dulux Valentine do a délaquer it claims to dépolit totes peintures. I have used it and it seems to be the equivalent of sugar soap. I am not sure that it would wotk on ceramic though. I am assuming your tile are ceramic. Basically it takes the top skin off paint.

Thanks Clair, I knew about lessive St. Marc, and had no idea it is the same as sugar soap... somehow sugar soap sounded good, in my mind it was a bit like sugar wax for legs!!

Thanks also Saddie. Yes they are ceramic tiles, and they are hideous, and I am sick of them. I will probably stick with lessive St. Marc - when I get around to it.
