Blanc de Meudon is a gently abrasive powder ideal for cleaning diverse surfaces without scratches: plastic, glass, marble, earthenware, copper, brass, pewter, silverware, stainless steel, or plain steel. It excels as a stain remover.
Mix equal parts water and Blanc de Meudon into a paste. Apply to the surface, let it dry, then wipe away the white film with a cloth. Rinse with a damp sponge and dry thoroughly. This method even tackles fruit juice or coffee stains on upholstery and carpets.
For tough, encrusted stains, enhance your paste with white vinegar or salt—but use cautiously on fragile surfaces or marble due to increased abrasiveness and acidity.
Apply, let dry, rinse, and polish with a microfiber cloth for flawless results. Perfect for tile residue.
