# Can I just clean my walls instead of repainting? | Time Paints

Sometimes. Clean a small test patch with a damp cloth first. If a gentle wipe brings back a noticeably fresher color, the wall is just dirty and cleaning may be enough. If it makes little difference or burnishes a shiny mark, the paint surface is worn through and the wall needs repainting.
