I love sock method. Sweeping them every time you vaccum the room is a quick preventative measure that prevents heavy buildup and back-breaking work.

Would 409 cleaner give them a kick? I'll do anything not to have to get down on all 4's to clean them. I use a mop too, but it does get the ground in stuff up.

You can buy a tub cleaner. It is a plastic wand with a sponge and scrubber attached. I clean my kitchen floor under my table with them. My chair legs have the rubber caps and it leaves black marks on the floor. This way you don't have to get down on your hands and knees. I also agree with the gloss paint.

Use a sponge mop and put a squirt of mop-n-glo in the water and the next time all the gunk will wipe off easily.
Next time you paint, use glossy paint on baseboards for easier cleanup.

Place an old pair of sports socks, sprayed with a bit of vinegar and water. Then just use your feet to do a quick cleaning.

homeschoolin_mum has the right idea. I am a janitor and this is how I do them. Much faster and a lot less painful.

Pay a neighbor kid 25 cents per foot to clean them. Hehe.

I sweep mine regularly with a broom and use a mop to clean them!
