Degreaser not working? Common mistakes and how Il Marsigliese helps solve them
Wrong dilution, short contact time, overdosing: common degreaser mistakes and how to manage them more effectively.
Mistake 1: using the same dilution every time
One of the most common issues with degreasers is treating every surface and every soil load in the same way. A weak dilution may leave residue behind, while a strong one can increase product use without adding real value in routine cleaning.
Il Marsigliese supports more accurate use by offering three clear options: ordinary at 100 ml per 1 litre, intense at 200 ml per 1 litre, and neat use on stubborn stains. That makes it easier to match the product strength to the actual task.
Mistake 2: skipping proper contact time
Spraying and wiping immediately is still common in day-to-day work, but it often reduces degreasing efficiency. If the product is removed too soon, the same area may need to be reworked several times, slowing the operation down.
With Il Marsigliese, the stated contact time is 2 to 5 minutes. This gives teams a clear working reference: spray evenly, allow time to act, then remove with a clean microfibre cloth.
Mistake 3: overdosing to compensate
In professional cleaning, there is often a tendency to add more product for reassurance. But more chemistry does not automatically mean better cleaning. Overdosing cannot replace correct dwell time or proper physical removal of loosened soil.
Il Marsigliese also helps on the control side: 1 litre of product yields up to 10 litres of solution at the ordinary dilution and up to 5 litres at the intense dilution. That stated yield makes dosing easier to standardise.
Mistake 4: wiping with the wrong cloth
Even an effective degreaser can appear disappointing if the final wipe is done with an unsuitable, dirty or already saturated cloth. In that case, dissolved residue is often spread rather than fully removed.
The recommended method for Il Marsigliese is straightforward: after spraying and allowing contact time, remove with a clean microfibre cloth. This simple step is essential to convert chemical action into a visibly clean result.
FAQ
If a degreaser seems ineffective, is the product always the problem?
Not necessarily. Dilution, contact time and removal method often make the difference. With Il Marsigliese, these parameters are clearly defined, which makes the process easier to control.
Why not use the product neat all the time?
Because neat use is intended for stubborn stains, not as the default method. In most professional tasks, using the correct dilution is a cleaner and more controlled approach.
What is one of the most common mistakes with spray degreasers?
A very common mistake is spraying and wiping off straight away. Il Marsigliese needs 2 to 5 minutes of contact time to deliver its degreasing action properly.
