2-hexoxyethanol is a cleaning agent, or "surfactant," that we use in our products to remove dirt and deposits. It does this by surrounding dirt particles to loosen them from the surface they're attached to, so they can be rinsed away.

Butoxypropanol is a solvent cleaning agent commonly used in detergents. It works by dissolving the soils so that they are easy to remove. It removes many types of soils, including dirt and soap scum.

Propylene glycol is a solubilizer that can also be found in cosmetics, toothpaste, food, and beer. It is sometimes confused with ethylene glycol, the sweet-tasting ingredient that can be used in air conditioning systems and antifreeze products, but it is a different ingredient. Propylene glycol is used in our products to help ensure the even distribution of the ingredients throughout a product, to help it work better. We also use it as an odor eliminator; as a cleaning agent, or "surfactant," that removes dirt; as a wetting agent; or as a carrier that enables delivery of the product to the surface. In certain products, Propylene glycol works as a moisturizer helping to prevent a product or surface, like leather, from drying out by retaining moisture, which makes the material softer and more pliable.

Sodium C14-17 sec-alkyl sulfonate is a wetting agent that can also be found in shampoos and personal care products. We use it in our products to help a formula spread across a surface, making cleaning more efficient.

Acetic acid is what gives vinegar its pungent smell and sour taste, and has been used in homes for more than 10,000 years. In our products, it is used as a cleaning agent that removes dirt and soils, and also as a pH adjuster that alters the pH of a product to improve stability. Every formula has an optimum pH to make it work best. For example, a formula that’s more acidic works better for soap scum removal. Its opposite, a formula that’s more alkaline, might be more effective at removing grease or greasy soils. We use pH adjusters to make sure we achieve the best pH for a particular job. Also, the pH of a formula can affect how long it lasts within a container – for example limiting its tendency to corrode a can, container, or dispenser.

Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate is a cleaning agent, or "surfactant," that is one of a group of ingredients commonly used in bath products, cleansing products, shampoos, and hair conditioners. We use it in our products to remove dirt and deposits. In its liquid form, as we use it, it surrounds dirt particles to loosen them from the surface to which they are attached.

Lactic acid is a cleaning agent that can also be found in cosmetics and household products, including skin care products, shampoos, and makeup. Lactic acid is naturally occurring or can be produced synthetically. We use it in our products to remove dirt and deposits by surrounding dirt particles to loosen them from the surface they're attached to so that they can be rinsed away.
