Elegant surfaces: antique soap as a finish for Epoca marble
 

Antique soap 985 is used to protect and polish surfaces designed with Epoca marble 949. After applying two thin layers of Epoca marble and pressing the surface, apply one or two thin coats of antique soap with a trowel or brush. This gives the surface additional shine and intensifies the colors. For special effects, such as a concrete look, the antique soap can be colored with a maximum of 3% JAEGER mineral color concentrate. Immediately after application, excess material is rubbed off with a cotton cloth to achieve an even and aesthetically pleasing surface.

Antique soap as a protective finish for Stucco Romano

Antique soap 985 is ideal as a protective finish for surfaces designed with Stucco Romano 939. After applying and polishing Stucco Romano, antique soap can be applied as an additional protective layer. This is particularly recommended for areas subject to heavy wear, such as sales rooms, restaurants, and hallways. The antique soap is applied thinly with a Veneziano spatula and, after drying, polished to a shine with a stainless steel spatula. This not only increases the protection of the surface, but also intensifies the color brilliance and depth of the Stucco Romano. The combination of Stucco Romano and antique soap allows the creation of high-quality, porcelain-smooth surfaces in the style of original Venetian smoothing techniques, with additional protection and shine.

Applying antique soap to JAEGER Antiqua creates a unique, antique-looking surface finish that is both aesthetically pleasing and durable. This combination is ideal for designing walls with a classic, timeless character.
