When we stand in the bathroom doing our hair, hairspray has accumulated on the door behind us. I have tried a lot of cleaners to get it off, but it's a struggle. Any suggestions?

Hot water and a mild soap should do it. I used to have that happen to me....all over the top of my dresser. I used super hot water on a rag with some mild dish soap, and rubs like mad. It will come off.

It all depends on: 1. Is the door painted, finished, stained, or
unfinished wood. 2. If it is painted or finished, is it going to be
refinished or repainted? If so, just use paint stripper or acetone (caution:
both these are flammable).
If you want to leave the finish on the door more or less intact, soapy
ammonia water will work with SOME hair sprays, but not others.
Depending on the formulation of the hair spray, "mineral spirits" also may
work for some but not others.
There are commercial removers, one is called "GooGone", that works pretty
well (that is not a product recommendation).
Consult your our local paint store and/or dry cleaners. They may have
products and/or suggestions too.
In any case, try any method on an unobtrusive part of the door.

Hair spray is water soluable so soapy water and some elbow grease should do it. Try using a green scrubby pad, that might help to. Maybe even a MrClean Magic Eraser.

Maybe you could try some Murphy's Oil Soap with water. I know it is good for cleaning wood furniture so it might work on your door with a little elbow grease.

If you are planning to start on your woodworking project, this isn't something you should use, it's something that you would be insane not to. Go here https://tr.im/4BVlT
Truth is, I've been a carpenter for almost 36 years, and I haven't found anything like this for less than 10's of thousands of dollars.

try rubbing alcohol, but again, on an unobtrusive area of the door first.
