Decora Sapone di Marsiglia is a water-based, anti-dirt protective topcoat formulated with genuine Marseille soap, emollients, and special additives. It is specifically designed for smooth lime-based finishes, such as Venetian plasters and Marmorino of all grain sizes. This product is suitable for interior applications, providing protection while maintaining the breathability of the surface.
For best results, wait 48 hours after applying the lime-based finish. Then, apply one coat of Sapone di Marsiglia using a clean stainless steel trowel, ensuring even coverage. Remove any excess product from the surface. After approximately 30 minutes (or less if the temperature exceeds 30°C), polish the surface with a clean non-woven fabric cloth or a mechanical polisher to achieve the desired finish.
The theoretical yield of Decora Sapone di Marsiglia is approximately 20–25 m² (215–270 ft²) per 1 liter when applied to a smooth lime plaster surface. Actual coverage may vary depending on the substrate’s porosity and application technique.
During application, the ambient temperature should be between +10°C and +30°C (+50°F and +86°F), with relative humidity below 85%. These conditions should be maintained during application and for at least 24 hours afterward to ensure proper drying and performance.
Decora Sapone di Marsiglia should be stored in its original, sealed container in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. The storage temperature should be between +5°C and +30°C (+41°F and +86°F). Under these conditions, the product maintains its properties for up to 12 months. Ensure the product is protected from freezing.
