Aqueous gel cleaning composition for lipophilic stain removal from vehicle surfaces

A gellable vehicle surface cleaning composition comprising:

• a non-ionic surfactant;
• gelling components comprising:
• an inorganic gel forming substance of a phyllosilicate, natural smectite clay or synthetic layered silicate, or combination thereof;
• and at least one hydrophilic polymer of an alkali soluble emulsion polymer, a hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble emulsion polymer, butyl acrylate-methacrylic acid-methyl methacrylate copolymer, hydrophobically modified non-ionic polyol, natural gums, or combination thereof, with a ratio of said inorganic gel forming substance:
• said at least one hydrophilic polymer of between 0.1-1:1;
• and
• an aqueous solvent system in which said non-ionic surfactant and said gelling components are present, said aqueous solvent system comprising a first solvent having a Kamlet-Taft solvent polarity α value of zero, a second solvent having a Kamlet-Taft solvent polarity α 0.6-0.85 value;
• and water present at more than 50 total weight percent.
