How can I clean a vinyl stain off of my vinyl wall?

Vinyl Stain Removal from Vinyl Wall

Vinyl on vinyl can be difficult to remove, as the two have likely fused together to form one. I have a few things to try, but I can't guarantee success, unfortunately. I would start with baking soda, and use it as you would an abrasive cleanser, and scrub. Non-gel toothpaste may also do the trick. If that doesn't work, try mineral spirits (available at most hardware or department stores), and as a last resort, I would try rubbing the stain with silver polish. Be sure to rinse thoroughly after trying each product.
