New gal bud has a house that's seen many moons. Her garage is spacious with many shelves and walls to utilize. Of course it's all simple sheetrock and the shelves are covered in thick dust as I suspect many garages are. Me being retired, she figures I need a honey-do or 2 and asked I spruce up the space so I can put my tools and hers in a new and clean joint. I'm not sure how to clean it up although I think a good waterhose would be a good start but afraid of damaging the sheetrock with water. The space hasn't been used for many years and rather enclosed. My question, is my idea of a strong hose at the risk of damaging sheetrock with water the right way to go, or would a face mask and many wet rags and buckets of water to wring them out in be the better alternative. Me and dust don't get along very well, btw.
