Removing dust from tile installers?!

[tim]

Our cleaning business came across a job that required cleaning the white dust from a tile removal/installation where the installer did not put up a barrier to prevent the white dust from settling all over the house. I cleaned all the furniture but the woodwork would not clean up! We used Murpheys Soap, an all purpose cleaner, furniture polish, cotton rags, microfiber cloths, even a magic eraser! The only way we could remove it was rubbing it aggressively with our bare hands. There has got to be an easier way! Anyone have any experience with this?

Someone I spoke w/recently had a similar issue, tried Windex, worked. just what I heard, no real experience, anyone else tried Windex?

We will try anything! Not sure what is in windex that would work differently but desperate times call for desperate moments!
