Marseille soap

Marseille Soap is made from pure vegetable oils. Does not contain any artificial surfactants, fragrances, colours or preservatives. Finely shredded flakes quickly dissolve in water. Thanks to its low solubility in cold water, Marseille Soap is particularly suitable for wood floors. Cleaning floors Cleaning smooth floors of all kinds, in particular oily or waxy floors made from cork, wood and ceramic tiles, as well as lino. Add 2 tablespoons of Marseille Soap to 1 litre of kettle-boiled water and stir until the soap has dissolved. Then dilute with 7 litres of water and clean the floor as usual. Cleaning brushes and paint rollers Add 4-5 tablespoons of Marseille Soap to 1 litre of kettle-boiled water and stir until the soap has dissolved. Leave to cool for at least 30 minutes. Thoroughly wash oily brushes and rollers using the soap solution. Dried, oily tools can usually be cleaned by briefly boiling in the soap solution. Soaping floors and tables In some parts of Germany, it is customary to protect softwood floors and tables against dirt by simply “soaping” them. This preserves the bright character of the wood as far as possible. Over the years, a beautiful patina usually develops. Dissolve approx. 20 grams of Marseille Soap in 1 litre of boiling water. Apply the warm soap solution to the untreated wood floor, working with a suitable brush, scrub and then leave to dry. Repeat if necessary until the desired result is achieved or until the surface is coated with an extremely fine soap film. This process may need to be repeated from time to time, depending on wear and tear, in order to guarantee sufficient protection for the wood.
