Abstract: An acidic aqueous cleaner, preferably in emulsion or microemulsion form, which is of a pH in the range of one to four and is useful for cleaning hard surfaced items, such as bathtubs, sinks, tiles and porcelains and even some such items which are not acid resistant, such as those of a European enamel known as zirconium white enamel, comprises synthetic organic detergent, such as a mixture of anionic and nonionic detergents, e.g., sodium paraffin sulfonate, higher fatty alcohol ethoxylate sulfate and higher fatty alcohol or phenol ethoxylate, organic acids, e.g., mixture of succinic, glutaric and adipic acids, phosphonic acid, e.g., aminotris-(methylenephosphonic acid) and phosphoric acid in an aqueous medium.

Abstract: A cleaning composition is prepared including an anionic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, a fatty acid, a water soluble organic solvent, a water insoluble organic solvent and sequestering agent of 2-hydroxy-3-aminopropionic-N,N-diacetic or its derivatives in the amount of about 2.0% to 8.0% by weight. The cleaning composition is particularly adapted for cleaning hard surfaces and is effective in degreasing and removing soap scum from kitchen and bathroom surfaces. The composition has a pH of about 8.5 to 12.5 and is particularly suited for acid sensitive surfaces.
