What's "normal" wear and tear?
Had a tenant in my place for 6 years. Would hand prints on and scuff marks on ceilings and nail holes everywhere for pictures etc be considered normal wear and tear?
He was a relatively good tenant so I don't wanna nickel and dime him. I sorta expected to repaint. but sheesh. why's the ceiling so dirty!? lol
what would I even deduct for that from the security deposit? Or is that just standard wear and tear?

6 years is a long time for one tenant. You say you don't want to nickel and dime him, and you shouldn't. How much money are we really talking for cleanup?
Give the tenant their deposit back, spruce up your unit, be THANKFUL you had such a good tenant for that long of a stretch, and keep it moving.
