<p>The blooming type, hard surface cleaning concentrate compositions according to the invention comprise the following constituents: 0.1-10 wt.% of a terpene containing solvent which desirably includes both pine oil and d-limonene; 0.1-12 wt.% of at least one organic solvent other than a terpene containing solvent constituent; 0.1-20 wt.% of a nonionic surfactant system which includes both at least one non-ionic surfactant constituent having an HLB of greater than or equal to 10, and at least one nonionic surfactant based on a C8-C18 primary alcohol ethoxylate which exhibits a cloud point of about 20 °C or less in water; a bloom enhancing effective amount at least one amphoteric surfactant selected from alkylampho(mono)- and (di)-acetates, as well as alkylampho(mono)- and (di)- propionates, and aminopropionates; and the balance, to 100 wt.% of water. According to certain especially preferred embodiments, the concentrate compositions may be characterized in that when the concentrate compositions are diluted at a ratio of 1 part to 64 parts water at 20 °C or 40 °C the resultant mixture exhibits a light transmittance loss of at least 50 %.</p> |
