Introducing the new Lithofin MN Wash & Clean – the new generation of cleaning for natural stone floors.
This new neutral cleaner specifically formulated for natural stone not only cleans floors, but does so without removing or reducing the effectiveness of the sealer or impregnator that has been applied to the floor, leaving it beautifully clean and fresh and still completely protected.
Lithofin recommends that stone is treated with Lithofin MN Stain-Stop (solvent based) or Lithofin MN Stain-Stop ECO (water based) for invisible protection against staining from oil, water or grease penetration to ensure that the natural beauty is retained.
A great deal of cleaning and maintenance products on the market seriously reduce the effectiveness of these treatments due to the high alkalinity content and subsequent damaging residues.
Lithofin MN Wash & Clean is a brand new product that has been specially formulated to substantially support as well as enhance the protective life of impregnators and finishes on natural stone. It works well with acrylic emulsions and waxes such as Lithofin Multi-Seal and Lithofin Care-Sheen.
Lithofin Easy Care has been a highly successful maintenance product based on neutral detergents that are ideal for universal use, but with the specific formulation of Lithofin MN Wash & Clean this is now the recommended product for limestone, travertine, and all stone floors.
It is supplied as a high yielding concentrate that lifts dirt deposits effectively and easily. With regular use of Lithofin MN Wash & Clean, the surface of the stone only improves in colour and structure.
Just add the product to lukewarm water – approximately 20ml to 10litres of water. If the floor is particularly absorbent or the surface particularly dirty, more can be used perfectly safely, while on large areas that are machine cleaned daily only about 3litres of Lithofin MN Wash & Clean will be needed per month for each 100m2 of floor.
After distributing Lithofin MN Wash & Clean on the floor with a mop, cloth or cleaning machine on larger areas, it can be left to dry without rinsing.
For more specific cleaning of natural stone areas the use of Lithofin MN Power Clean (diluted with water 1:5) is recommended as this will remove light dirt / grease deposits as well as efflorescence build up (white chalky-dusting). The use of a white emulsifying pad will help with slightly more ingrained contamination.
