Answer 1

you'll never get oil out of clothes or soft furniture/bedding - you'll have to replace it - you might have to tear out walls and cabinets - talk to your insurance company - get an estimate on repair

Answer 2

You have to take a spray bottle or a garden sprayer and fill with bleach and water, 3 parts bleach and 1 part water. Spray down the areas where it is damaged, and let dry good then you will have to KILZ it probably 2 coats.. My brother had a fire and it sooted up the living room and kitchen bad, not to mention the mess from the fire dept. So to make sure you kill the mold, use Bleach, and then kilz it good afterwords. This is what his Ins. Co. told him to do.....

Answer 3

Try Kilz Primer for the walls.

Answer 4

oil turned to tar, you may be better off just trying to replace every thing , scrub the cabnits down with a grease cutter, with a fine steel wool, pad, scrape what you can off walls with a putty knife, use a stain killer to paint over it,

Answer 5

try vinagar. Mix it like 70/30. i had suet all over my walls and i didnt think anthing would work, and then i read in a home remidies book this idea. It works. good luck.
