MB-1 Floor Amore One Step Cleaner is a highly concentrated, slightly alkaline detergent with a twist! It is rinse free and leaves no dulling film. Special organic salts in its formula act as "moisturizers" this preventing natural stone from "drying out". It also contains optical brighteners to enhance the finish of the surfaces on which it is used and maintains a natural, streak free look. Originally designed for marble and granite, it is gentle enough to be safely used on hardwood, ceramic, resilient tile and any other hard surface not harmed by water.
Mix approximately 1 to 3 ounces (4 to 12 capfuls) - according to the level of soil on the floor - with 1 gallon of warm water. Then mop as usual. Do not rinse. rinsing would remove the organic salts in the formula that were designed to remain on the floor surface. Do not use more product than the proportion indicated. Though no damage would occur, rinsing would be necessary.
MB-3 Soap & Mineral Deposit Remover is specifically designed to safely dissolve soap and mineral deposits from natural stone, tile, glass and fiberglass. Uses a unique combination of special non-acid chemicals that quickly and easily dissolve and remove dingy, unsanitary soap scum and hard water deposits from shower walls, floors, doors, wash basins, and bath tubs. Does effortlessly what can't be done even by hard scrubbing with ordinary cleaners and abrasives. MB-3 Soap & Mineral Deposit Remover is highly effective and safe on most natural marble glossy surfaces. Be certain to test product on a spare tile or inconspicuous area for extra caution before use.
Use rubber gloves to avoid contact to the skin. Dilute MB-3 Soap & Mineral in a proportion 1 to 2 with warm water. Liberally apply with a sponge and allow to stand, without letting the solution dry, until soap scum begins to break up. Scrub slightly with a scrub brush or plastic scouring pad. Rinse thoroughly. Repeat process if necessary. Drying is not required.
MB-5 Stone & More Multi Surface Spray Cleaner uses a pH neutral combination of special chemicals that quickly and easily cleans marble, granite, ceramic, corian, porcelain, glass, including mirrors and most other hard surfaces. It also works great on bath and kitchen fixtures. Safe to use daily. Not designed to clean heavily soiled areas or remove soap build up. (For heavy duty cleaning and removal of soap build up, use our MB-3 Soap & Mineral Deposit Remover.)
Hold sprayer about 6 to 8 inches from surface, then spray a light mist over the area to be cleaned. Let the product sit for approximately 30 seconds. Buff the surface dry with a paper towel or a clean white cloth. When towel becomes wet, discard and start with a fresh one.
MB-9 Mold & Mildew Remover cleans without scrubbing. Removes mold, mildew stains, and odor on contact. Regular use (every 2 to 4 weeks, depending on level of use) will keep surfaces clean. It is safe on most natural marble surfaces. Be certain to test product first on a spare tile or inconspicuous area for extra caution before use.
Spray on liberally. Allow mold or mildew stain to disappear, be careful to not allow product to dry on the surface. Then rinse thoroughly. Repeat these steps if necessary. In the case of very old stubborn staining, you can use a soft brush to help break up stain. Drying is not necessary. If used on surfaces that will touch food, rinse thoroughly at least twice.
