Hello everyone, I have a somewhat specific problem with my Billy shelves from IKEA: In some corners and along the edges, stubborn dirt has accumulated that cannot be easily removed with a damp cloth or standard cleaning products.
My question: What is the best way to clean Billy shelves with stubborn dirt without damaging the surface? Are there any proven techniques or home remedies you would recommend, especially for these typical white laminated surfaces? I would appreciate tips on how to thoroughly and gently clean the shelves, even when the dirt is really dried in.

It is mainly dust and dried small splashes (probably coffee or juice), which have partly been “stored” in the corners of the shelves for a longer period of time.For such organic stains, a combination of baking soda paste and a mild alcohol (isopropyl alcohol or methylated spirits) can be very effective.
How often do you plan to clean the shelves? For regular maintenance, I would also recommend a gentle laminate cleaner that you can use after removing the stubborn dirt to prevent further buildup.
