TREATMENT USING SAVON DE MARSEILLE

Savon de Marseille and Savon Noir for Burgundy Limestone

INITIAL TREATMENT USING SAVON DE MARSEILLE SOAP FLAKES

Many old buildings have beautiful limestone floors that have developed their patina over hundreds of years.   To protect freshly laid Burgundy limestone floors and obtain this effect with Marius Fabre soap flakes:

Take a bucket (approx 10 litres) of very hot water (just off the boil) and add 500 grams of Marius Fabre Savon de Marseille soap flakes.   Once dissolved pour the resulting mixture into a watering can and water the clean floor abundantly and evenly.   The very hot water will help the soap penetrate into the pores of the stone.   Renew the operation several times always following the same procedure, waiting 8 to 24 hours between each application.  

500 gr of Savon de Marseille flakes willcover approx 25 m2 per application (in total 1,5kg for Beaunotte limestone and 1kg for Mareuil).   Once the floor is saturated with soap (approximately 2 to 3 applications according to the type of stone and finish) the tiles will have a whitish appearance due to the presence of soap on the surface of the stone.   Do not attempt to remove.   The soap will nourish the stone and the whitish aspect will disappear after a few weeks.
