Reduced residue hard surface cleaner
First Claim
1. An aqueous, hard surface cleaner with significantly improved residue removal and substantially reduced filming/streaking, said cleaner comprising:
- (a) an effective amount of a solvent selected from C1-6 alkanol, C3-24 alkylene glycol ether, and mixtures thereof;
(b) an effective amount of a surfactant selected from amphoteric and anionic surfactants, and mixtures thereof, said effective amount being about 0.001-1% anionic surfactant and about 0.005-2% amphoteric surfactant, and, optionally, a further, nonionic surfactant in an effective amount of about 0-0.75%;
(c) about 0.01-2% of a buffering system which comprises a nitrogenous buffer selected from the group consisting of;
ammonium or alkaline earth carbamates, guanidine salts, alkoxylalkylamines and alkyleneamines; and
(d) a fragrance oil and a 1-alkyl-2-pyrrolidone present in an amount sufficient to disperse said fragrance oil, said alkyl group of said pyrrolidone being C6-20 alkyl;
(e) the remainder as substantially all water.
