Painting interior walls

[Kanada]

We want to paint interior but have cooking oil smoke on the walls of our kitchen! I’m looking for a product to wash the greasy smoke off before I paint but tried two paint shops and they don’t seem to know what I’m talking about! They just suggested a primer… I will use a primer but can’t bring myself to roll it over this oil smoke! 

In Canada we used a product called TSP specifically made for this job…it was a powder mixed with water if I remember correctly!
Does anyone know what I should buy here in Thailand

TSP - Trisodium Phosphate.

 

Get it on Lazada https://www.lazada.co.th/products/chemipan-trisodium-phosphate-tsp-industrial-1kg-i283758879-s461522578.html?

 

Let's move this to DIY.

we used tsp in Australia as well as sugar soap, both work well and are used by all tradesmen. Using a primer over it will not work as it will not bind to the surface and either just craze or pull off the surface when painted over or knocked, you need to remove the oil etc from the walls/ceilings first , hot water alone will not do it, you need something in it that will break down the oil/fat then it has to be rinsed off using clean hot water

The products mentioned are sure to remove grease but so will most kitchen cleaning products.  That's what they do.  ????

Any cleaning product, including TSP, needs to be rinsed.

My 2 y/o nephew got into the wife's make-up (oil based?) and decided to leave his art work on the walls.  I already had Kitchen Magic clean degreaser from Makro and gave it a try, It removed most of the art work, now I just need to see if one coat of paint will be enough. ????

Thanks I’m a fan of Makro so I think I’ll give the Kitchen Magic a try

ive got a lot of space to do as it looks like kitchen dining and living rooms all need to be cleaned and painted!

 

This comes from normal Thai cooking and I’m not sure why we’re having this Aussie all of a sudden in the last six months!

We’re going to move the cooking back out to the summer kitchen I guess!

Do they sell anything to remove the nephew ?
