Liquid Black Soap by Marius Fabre

Using Black olive Soap for lime based protection Why black olive soap works so well!

• Olive oil soaps are rich in oleic acid

• Oleic acid reacts beautifully with lime to form calcium oleate

• Calcium oleate is:

  • Water-repellent

  • Insoluble

  • Stable inside concrete pores

• Historically used on stone, lime plaster, and concrete

Black Soap can be used diluted in water (20-30% soap to water) on interior wall surface for a light protective coating , the finish will be slightly matte to satin finish.  be sure that your lime paint has fully cured ( 2-4 weeks ) before applying a Black Soap protection. 

What black soap does on lime paint

Black soap (savon noir) doesn’t form a film like varnish or acrylic sealers. Instead, it:

• Slightly saponifies the lime surface

• Creates a soft, breathable, water-repellent patina

• Deepens color a touch (often a richer, darker tone)

• Keeps the surface vapor-permeable (key for lime)

This is why it’s traditional in tadelakt, limewash, and mineral finishes.
