Abstract

A method of demonstrating the cleaning performance of a cleaning composition comprises the steps of: providing a homogenous dairy-based solution on a demonstration surface; distributing oil composition on the homogenous dairy based solution to produce an oil dispersion on the demonstration surface; adding a cleaning composition onto the oil dispersion to view the displacement of the oil composition.

Claims

1. A method of demonstrating the grease cleaning performance of a cleaning composition, said method comprising the steps of:

(a) providing a homogenous dairy-based solution on a demonstration surface;

(b) distributing an oil composition on said surface, wherein the ratio of said oil composition to said homogenous dairy-based solution is about 1;

2.2 to less than about 1;

44;

(c) waiting from about 1 minute to less than about 15 minutes for said oil composition to disperse to form a visibly even oil dispersion on said demonstration surface; and

(d) adding an effective amount of a cleaning composition on said oil dispersion.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein said homogenous dairy-based solution has a temperature of about 5°

C. to about 50°

C.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein said waiting step comprises waiting for about 1 minute to about 3 minutes.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein said homogenous dairy-based solution is whole cow'"'"'s milk having a temperature of about 15°

C. to about 30°

C.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein said homogenous dairy-based solution is whole cow'"'"'s milk having a temperature of about 22°

C. to about 27°

C.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein said ratio of oil to homogenous dairy-based solution is about 1:

2.2 to 1;

8,

7. The method of claim 1 wherein said ratio of oil to homogenous dairy-based solution is about 1:

5 to 1;

8.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein said ratio of oil to homogenous dairy-based solution is about 1:

7.3.

9. The method of claim 1 wherein said oil composition is distributed at a level from about 5 ml to about 80 ml per square foot of said demonstration surface.

10. The method of claim 1 wherein said oil composition is selected from the group consisting of :

sesame oil, canola oil, olive oil, grapeseed oil, coconut oil, corn oil, peanut oil, and mixtures thereof.

11. The method of claim 1 wherein said method further comprises the step of diluting said cleaning composition with an aqueous carrier and forming a suds dispersion, prior to said adding step.

12. The method of claim 11 wherein said suds dispersion comprises said cleaning composition to said aqueous carrier in a ratio of about 1:

60.

13. The method of claim 11 wherein said method step further comprises dispensing said cleaning composition onto a cellulose sponge and immersing said sponge into a container comprising an aqueous carrier and squeezing said sponge about 10 times to generate suds.

14. The method of claim 1 wherein said cleaning composition is a dish detergent.

15. The method of claim 1 wherein said cleaning composition comprises an anionic surfactant system.

16. A method of demonstrating the grease cleaning performance of a cleaning composition, said method comprising the steps of:

(a) providing a homogenous dairy-based solution having a temperature of about 5°

C. to about 50°

C. on a demonstration surface;

(b) distributing an oil composition on said surface, wherein the ratio of oil to homogenous dairy-based solution is about 1;

2.2 to less than about 1;

44;

(c) waiting from about 1 minute to less than 15 minutes for said oil composition to disperse to form a visibly even oil dispersion on said demonstration surface;

(d) adding an effective amount of said cleaning composition on said oil dispersion.

17. A method of demonstrating the grease cleaning performance of a dish detergent, said method comprising the steps of:

(a) providing a homogenous dairy-based solution having a temperature of about 25°

C. to about 30°

C. on a demonstration surface;

(b) distributing an oil composition on said surface, wherein the ratio of oil to homogenous dairy-based solution is about 1;

2.2 to less than about 1;

5;

(c) waiting from about 1 minute to about 3 minutes for said oil composition to disperse to form a visibly even oil dispersion on said demonstration surface;

(d) diluting a dish detergent with an aqueous carrier and forming a suds dispersion; and

(e) adding an effective amount of said suds dispersion on said oil dispersion.
