Q: Can this soap be used as a stain-remover on fabrics?

submitted by Winters in Wisconsin - 8 months ago
  • A: Yes it is very effective in removing stains from fabrics

    submitted byAj - 7 months ago
  • A: Thanks for asking! The Murphy Oil Soap Wood Cleaner can be used on colorfast washable fabrics. Wet stain and apply MOS liquid full strength to laundering as usual. This treatment should be applied quickly after the stain occurs, in most cases stains are too well set for any remedy to work. Use two full capfuls of MOS per gallon of cold water and follow washing instructions on fabric.

Q: can you use this on vinyl or leather seats and how would you mix it

submitted by fisher - 8 years ago
  • A: Since we have not tested our Murphy Oil Soap Liquid Wood Cleaner for use on leather, we would not recommend you use it to clean any type of leather. For usage on vinyl, we recommend diluting 1/4 cup of liquid Murphy's per gallon of warm water.

Additional product information and recommendations

Guests are saying

The recent changes to Murphy's Oil Soap have left many guests disappointed, particularly due to the introduction of citronella oil, which alters the beloved scent and effectiveness of the product. While some guests appreciate its cleaning capabilities on various surfaces, the new formula has not met the expectations set by the original. Guests are seeking a return to the classic formula that has been trusted for generations, highlighting the importance of scent and performance in their cleaning routines.

    Must have for outdoor furniture maintenance!

    We spent $$$ on some backyard furniture, but have never truly been able to enjoy it bc the spiders would keep laying eggs and spinning webs all over it. Now that my 18 month old has discovered our patio furniture under the covers, I needed to find a solution that was manageable. That's where this soap comes into play ✨ It has been amazing at cleaning up my furniture and keeping the bugs away. I just added some into a spray bottle with water and every so often, I'll spritz my furniture real quick and wipe it down to ensure the citronella scent isn't too faded. it's been great and I love that I can actually use my outdoor furniture without worrying about pests now!

    reforumulated isn't better

    How to take a proven and time tested product and ruin it. First of all, it's obviously not the original formula it's been reformulated. The current product is much thinner in consistency. The older product was thicker and had a darker color. Why didn't they just leave it alone?

    Trusted Product for Antique Woodwork

    I have used this wonderful product for years and have only good things to say about it! My home is over 125 years old with lots of original woodwork. Mixing up a container with diluted Murphy’s Oil Soap is an easy way to keep the wood clean and looking great! I trust this product and it does not disappoint. I also love that it has a pleasant scent and does not require a rinse.

    Beyond Disappointed.

    Soooooo incredibly disappointed with the change in the formula. If zero stars were an option, I would’ve chosen that. I have used this product for years and years in a variety of ways on floors, wood, and on all my leather products. I didn’t realize they had changed the formula until I cleaned my saddle with it and it completely ruined the finish. Dried it out and made it look bleached. Also left my floors, dull, and hazy.So I started looking things up and realized they had changed the formula. No idea why you would change something that worked so amazingly well. Definitely won’t buy it again. I hope the company comes to their senses and brings the original, actual original formula back. The labeling is extremely misleading.

    Definitely NOT the "original" formula. Bad stuff.

    I agree 100% with LauraN and Jsdj: ie, the Murhpy's oil soap you sell now (for the last few years) is nothing like the old formula. Frankly, you're flat out lying when you make the statement indicating otherwise. It is not at all the same. I've used Murhpy's oil soap for literally 4 decades, for cleaning all of our horses' tack, our boots, and for cleaning all wood surfaces. You used to offer it in a tub, in a thick gel/paste. The liquid back then was good, too. What you are selling now is watery, smells different, and worst of all - it DRIES OUT the leather instead of conditioning it, and dries out the wood, too. If the current owner of the product, Colgate-Palmolive, bought Murphy's Oil Soap brand from the original creator, then C-P needs go back and find the original formula and remove the junk that's on the shelves now. I will not be buying it again, and am alerting our horse owning friends and clients to not use it on their tack or wood. We'd really appreciate you finding and going back to the original formula.... We miss the good old original stuff.

    Very disappointed

    My first try using this product. It left my vintage solid oak table dull and sticky. I followed the directions using a damp clean cloth but this is disgusting. I was proud of this table. Glad I only bought the small bottle - less money wasted. Yuck.

    Do not use in a boat!

    I bought a new bottle for my boat. Now I have to find a product to care for my teak below decks. This formula causes a light dusting of mold to grow in high humidity conditions. The original formula was perfect, this is useless.

    Best laundry booster

    I have used murphys oil directly on grease stains on clothing and they come out every time. Not only does it remove laundry stains, but deodorizes musty/smelly laundry. I use it on all of my flooring too!

    I clean homes and I love this products in so many levels. It’s safe to use on floors and furniture and smells great. I highly recommend marketing a Murphy soap candle. So many of my customers said they would buy it

    New vs old Formula

    I have always used Mrs. Murphy soap for all of the wood floors/furniture and even removing oil/stains from clothes before washing. Now with the new look/same formula, it’s hardly the same formula. It’s watered down, less thick, need to use more than the original. Disappointing. I understand marketing with change but it’s NOT the same. Even comparing my old original to the new original, the difference is huge. Please reconsider your marketing or formula….bottom line is profit but quality is worth more…

    Brought the wood back to its natural beauty!

    A friend just gave me a very old wood cockoo clock. It is beautiful, but very dusty and dirty. I knew Murphy’s was my go to for cleaning it. I diluted the soap with water, and cleaned the clock with a soft bristle brush. It came out far better than expected. It shines beautifully! The whole family has commented on how stunning this old clock looks, and all I did was carefully clean it with diluted Murphy’s! Thanks for this awesome product. Now I’ll start the clock repair.

    Disappointed w/changed product.

    This is NOT the same as it used to be. Scent has changed And More importantly the effectiveness of the product. Leaves a film and does not work as well. Causes more work. Now why would I do that ? If you are looking to loose customers-continue on.

    What changed with Murphy oil soap?

    I have used Murphy oil soap for years but something has changed. The color is lite and pale and it doesn’t even smell the same. It still cleans but I’m using more to get the same cleaning results. I’m sure they are going to say nothing has changed but anyone who used this in the past would see the difference.

    New formula- and it is sticky and awful. I threw out the full bottle. Leaves a sticky tacky floor which was very challenging to remove.
