How to touch up paint 
Wash the walls. 
Soak your sponge in soapy water and wring out excess moisture. Wash your walls with the sponge to remove surface dirt, marks or grime.
Dry the walls with a clean towel, and rub a soft cloth over the painted surface if it looks dull. Dullness occurs on some glossy, paint surfaces after repeated washing.
