Claims16
A sprayable composition comprising:
- from 20 to 40 wt. % of one or more C1-C6 alcohols, based upon the total weight of the composition;
- from 0.1 to 0.8 wt. % of one or more alkaline pH adjusting agents, based upon the total weight of the composition;
- from 0.1 to 0.8 wt. % of one or more nonionic surfactants comprising one or more of alcohol ethoxylates, alcohol propoxylates, and alkyl polyglucosides;
- and
- from 60 to 80 wt. % water, based upon the total weight of the composition,
- wherein the composition has a pH of from greater than 12 to less than 14, and
- wherein the composition is devoid of fatty acid-derived surfactants.
