Abstract: The present invention is directed to an acidic hard surface treatment composition which provides a cleaning and disinfecting benefit comprising: an acidic constituent which comprises water soluble organic acid; at least one anionic surfactant constituent; at least one nonionic surfactant constituent; at least one organic solvent constituent; optionally one or more further constituents and the balance, water. The compositions exhibit surprising efficacy against various gram positive and gram negative type pathogenic bacteria, as well as against fungi in the absence of known cationic quaternary ammonium compounds known to be effective against pathogenic bacteria, as well as other known-art antimicrobial constituents and bleach are excluded.

Abstract: A combination cleaning device useful in the cleaning of hard surfaces, or soft surfaces which combination cleaning device includes a cleaning means particularly an abrasive cleaning means such as a brush, abrasive pad or other physical means which is used to contact a surface requiring cleaning and/or disinfecting treatment, and which combination cleaning device further includes a chemical cleaning composition which may optionally also provide a sanitizing benefit, which combination cleaning device is manually graspable by a consumer. In preferred embodiments the chemical cleaning composition is provided in a pressurized or pressurizable vessel which is at least partially enclosed within the said combination cleaning device whererin the user of the device dispenses the cleaning composition which is expelled from the vessel and then to the cleaning means. Methods relating to the use of the device as well as methods or manufacturing the device are also disclosed.
