  • Publication number: 20120325710
    Abstract: A method for demonstrating the surface cleaning performance of a disposable paper product. The method comprising the steps of: selecting at least one test implement comprising disposable paper product; selecting at least one demonstration implement comprising a durable cloth substrate; selecting a testing surface; preparing at least one spill specimen, the spill specimen comprising a fluorescing or luminescent component; applying the spill specimen on a first portion and a second portion of the testing surface; wiping the spill specimen from the first portion of testing surface with the test implement; wiping the spill specimen from the second portion of testing surface with the demonstration implement; and, revealing by sufficient lighting means any of the fluorescing or luminescent component remaining on the testing surface.

  • Publication number: 20090088519
    Abstract: An easily spreadable furniture polish composition that provides dusting benefits and imparts shine with minimal residue to a surface to be treated. The furniture polish composition includes a film former, an aqueous carrier, an anionic associative polymer free of acrylates/C10-C30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymers, and is substantially free of organic solvents. In one embodiment, the anionic associative polymer is a hydrophobically-modified alkali-soluble emulsion polymer.

  • Patent number: 6503413
    Abstract: Stable, aqueous compositions for treating surfaces, especially fabrics, comprise: a relatively low molecular weight polyalkyleneoxide polysiloxane surfactant; a buffering agent to maintain the pH of the composition in the range of from about 4 to about 10, preferably from about 5 to about 9.5, and more preferably from about 6 to about 9; and an aqueous carrier. The compositions can further comprise catoinic surfactants to further enhance the spreading and/or fabric penetration ability of the compositions. The compositions can further comprise a variety of other optional ingredients. Methods of treating surfaces include methods wherein the compositions are contacted with surfaces, especially fabrics, to reduce malodor impression on the surfaces and/or reduce the appearance of wrinkles in fabrics.
