An oil stain on your wooden floor, a cocktail spilled on your sofa, your favorite pair of jeans falling victim to your sweet tooth… The solution? La Terre de Sommières! Not convinced? Yet she has 5 good reasons to convince you.

Cleans all surfaces

La Terre de Sommières Starwax The Fabulous has absorbent properties that make it an excellent stain remover. Able to absorb up to 80% of its own weight, Terre de Sommières is perfect for getting rid of a multitude of stains, especially those caused by grease. Non-corrosive, it is suitable for a wide variety of surfaces and textiles, even the most delicate.

It can save your sofa

There’s nothing more annoying than a big sticky stain on your beautiful sofa. When it can’t be removed, you’re often left with only your eyes to cry and the tactic of camouflage plaid… unless you opt for Starwax The Fabulous Terre de Sommières. Armed with paper towels, Terre de Sommières and a vacuum cleaner, operation “get rid of the ugly stain” can begin.

Start by removing any excess grease or liquid with a paper towel. Sprinkle generously with Terre de Sommières. Leave the clay to act for 30 minutes to overnight, depending on the nature of the stain, then vacuum to remove any powder residue. Don’t hesitate to repeat the operation if necessary.

It loosens porous soils

To clean porous floors (tiles, marble, terracotta…), even with old stains, you can use Starwax The Fabulous Terre de Sommières. All you need is a simple brush: sprinkle your floor with Terre de Sommières and leave for 30 minutes to overnight, depending on the condition of the surface. Then brush gently to remove the powder. Is the stain still visible? You can repeat the operation, leaving the terre de Sommières to act for longer.

An excellent dry stain remover

Practical, Terre de Sommières can be used as a dry stain remover. Ideal for cleaning textiles that can’t be machine-washed, such as car seats, chair seats or, as we’ve just seen, sofa fabric. The key is to let Starwax The Fabulous Terre de Sommières act on the stain long enough, then vacuum it up. You’ll be blown away by the results!

It can be used to make a stain-removing soap

To remove stubborn stains from your textiles, such as traces of make-up, butter, etc., the ideal solution is to make an ultra-effective stain-removing soap. To do this, bring Terre de Sommières Starwax The Fabulous and Starwax The Fabulous Marseille Soap shavings.

In a bowl, mix 5 tablespoons of terre de Sommières with 1 tablespoon of Marseille soap shavings. Add a little warm water and knead until you obtain a homogeneous paste, which you can then leave to air-dry. To use, simply apply it to the stain on your fabric before machine washing. Quite simply.
