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

submitted by fisher - 7 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.

  • A: I used Murphy Oil Spray cleaner on the leather seats of my car, after my children (toddlers at the time, in car seats) spilled apple juice that subsequently dried on the leather. Worked Great!

    submitted byKS - 10 months ago

Q: If I mix this up in a spray bottle, does it need to be used right away? Or how long do you think it lasts once diluted? Thank you!

submitted by Coppola - 2 months ago
  • A: Hey there! we recommend using our Murphy's soap as directed on the bottle. This formula has not been tested to be used in a spray bottle to be used later. For a spray option check out our Murphy Cleaning Spray. 🙂

Q: Does it leave wood floors slick or slippery when dry?

submitted by KWLL9 - 4 months ago
  • A: For Murphy's oil, we recommend applying the product with the help of a cloth and letting the surface air-dry for the best dry surface. It should not be sticky or slippery afterwards. However, liquid Murphy Oil Soap must be diluted in water unless cleaning leather or pre-treating fabric. On most surfaces, application directly from the bottle may result in a sticky surface.

Q: Can Murphy oil be used on plastic or vinyl items

submitted by Janet - 8 months ago

Q: Will this shine my wood floors

submitted by MzQ - 1 year ago
  • A: Murphy Wood Cleaner is specially designed to clean both finished wood and non-wood surfaces so they maintain their beautiful shine. Murphy Wood Cleaner should not be used on unfinished, unsealed, or waxed wood surfaces because they may be water sensitive. If your floors are not sealed or finished, we recommend you test Murphy Oil Soap in a small, out-of-the -way area to see how it works on your floor. If your floor dulls, don’t use it on your floor. We hope this answers your question.

I like the original product better. Completely different mixture, texture and scent. Very disappointed in whatever you did to change this product. Used to leave my wood glowing;.now it's just a drab mess. I had to use the 2 other cleaners to get the drab slime film off of my table that was left by your product. You were very dishonest in pretending and marketing that this was the same product. It is nothing like the old product and you have displayed a very disappointing lack of honesty and integrity.

When you read all the positive reviews, it appears most of the reviews are for the formula before the new formula, which was a great product. The new formula is not so great. They changed the smell. It doesn’t bring back nostalgic memories. How can it? The new smell has only been around for a few years. I miss the old formula without the citronella. I loved cleaning with the old formula that stated 98% natural. The company can keep their 99% natural with citronella.

I just bought a new bottle. Definitely not the same product. Can’t stand the citronella smell. I loved the old smell. The new formula dries out my hands, the old product never did. I started checking into it and it looks like the ingredients are different even though the bottle says same formula. ? I used to use Murphy’s for everything. I will not be buying it anymore! I will be looking for a different cleaning product if anyone has any ideas. So so disappointed that the company decided to change a loved and trusted product that had been around for years. It is definitely not the original formula as the bottle states. Bring back the old formula exactly as it was before!!!!

This is not the original. It is chemically different and certainly not what I need or want. You might have well branded it "New Murphy's Oil Soap". It worked so well for Coke.

I have to agree with the other reports of this product, not cleaning as well and not leaving the luster that he used to. I do hope you consider reverting back to the original formula. I would think you’d be putting customer satisfaction over profits.

I need to look for a new cleaner after 40 years! It will be hard to replace Murphys. I’m angry with the change. Likely prompted by greed because it it NOT a better product. I have been a loyal user of Murphy’s Oil Soap for years because it was a reliable, trusted product that safely cleaned and conditioned my wood surfaces. However, I recently purchased a new bottle and was extremely disappointed to discover that the formula has clearly changed — and not for the better. The new version is lighter in color, thinner in consistency, and noticeably different in performance. It no longer provides the same rich, nourishing clean that the original vegetable oil soap formula did. The label still claims “original formula,” but the ingredient list tells a different story. Adding plant-based detergents and synthetic ingredients may check marketing boxes, but it has fundamentally altered a product that people trusted for generations. I feel misled as a customer. There was no clear notification that the formula had changed, and longtime users like myself are left with an inferior product that does not live up to Murphy’s original reputation. Please reconsider this reformulation — or at least be honest with customers about the changes you’ve made.

I am 100% here to say I have bought top dollar most expensive so called Hardwood Floor cleaner. And I don't have vinyl I have the real RedOak hardwood floor and I absolutely love Murphy Oil Soap compared to anything else I have ever bought. And I'm a mom to 7 kids and have a huge dog. So I clean my floors alot and it don't leave a film or residue and 100% actually cleans like it says it will. I will never buy the most expensive wood cleaner again. This is all I ever buy and will forever. I will always keep several bottles i never want to run out of this.

Trying desperately to find the original oil soap and having zero luck. I came here and it seems like others are equally disappointed in what appears to be a new formula. I use it to remove acrylic paint from stencils, etc. and this new formula doesn’t work AT ALL. Please bring back your original formula or let us have a choice in which formula we purchase,

Why did you change the formula? Murphy’s has been my miracle maker when it came to dried, set in stains in our clothes. It got out everything! Now… it does nothing, but make my clothes smell like the product. I had to wash a load of our best clothes five times to try and get the smell out. Worst of all, it still did not remove the stains. I’m so sad.
