Abstract: Disclosed is a liquid pine oil cleaning composition containing: A) water; B) about 5-20% by weight of pine oil; C) about 2-10% by weight of an organic solubilizer distinct from said pine oil; D) about 0.1-5% by weight of an alkalinity agent; E) about 0.1-15% by weight of an anionic surfactant; F) about 0.01 to about 2% by weight by weight of a cationic surfactant comprising a quaternary ammonium salt represented by the formula wherein R9 and R10 are independently a hydrogen or a C1-3 alkyl group; R11 is a C8-C18 alkyl group; and R12 is a C1-3 alkyl group or an ethoxylate group represented by the formula —(CH2CH2O)yH, wherein y is a number from 1 to 3; and X− is a halide ion or a methosulfate, and G) about 0.1 to 10% by weight of a nonionic surfactant comprising an alcohol alkoxylate. Also disclosed is a method for cleaning a hard surface comprising contacting the hard surface in need of cleaning with the aforementioned pine oil cleaning composition.
