The emulsion contains a film-former such as a silicone, wax, resin, non-drying oil, and mixtures thereof; a low level of a hydrocarbon solvent, water, a surfactant, and, as an essential component, an alpha-olefin having from 10 to about 18 carbon atoms. The alpha-olefin when present in fairly low levels strongly attacks oil-borne stains without substantial detriment to the gloss characteristics of the film. Additionally, the alpha-olefin contributes to the leveling characteristics of the cleaner-polish when applied to a substrate. | |
