I am in the process of tiling my bathroom walls (only), please can you tell me if it is worth investing in a washboy, and if they are suitable for walls? I have another couple of DIY projects where it may be used (again for walls), but I just wondered about suitability, because these items always seem to be listed as floor cleaning tools.

Thanks, in advance, for any advice you can give.

use mine on walls all the time.

That's brilliant. Thanks for the advice. All I need to do now is learn how to use one effectively!!

Don't we all.....

I`d use the sponge it comes with! Using the washboy may scratch the tiles! (sorry, in just one of those moods!) Yes Lianne it`s a fantastic bit of kit but get a decent one, i use a Karl Dahm and it is excellent, worth the money

Hi Turkish, I have just ordered a Kaul washboy, so fingers crossed

yea washboys are fantastic i never have to grout any more my washboy does it all and i only pay him £2 a metre.

mine arrived the day, still reading the instructions looking baffled lol
