The invention relates to an automatically acting cleaning liquid for cleaning waterproof Surfaces, especially for the total cleaning of motorcycles.

Basically three types of cleaning fluids are known as household cleaners:

The cold cleaners are based on petroleum and are only suitable for removing oil contamination, for example from dirty engine blocks and the like. These products are not able to Removing pigment dirt or the like from other surfaces without leaving any residue.

The spray cleaners for household use are primarily used to remove grease in dirt thought of the kitchen. They are based on a mixture of water, solvents and washing raw materials. Even these products are unable to effectively remove pigment stains. They also attack many things Surfaces, such as painted surfaces.

The so-called HD cleaners are mostly strongly alkaline products, which are used with increased Temperature and high pressure are sprayed onto the surfaces to be cleaned. These products have strong alkalinity, as a result of which they, together with high pressure and high Attack various surfaces. Furthermore, they require a high level of machine effort.

The invention is based on the object of creating an automatically acting cleaning liquid, for the effortless cleaning of waterproof surfaces, especially for the total cleaning of motorcycles suitable is

This object is achieved with the features of claim 1.
With the product according to the invention it is surprisingly possible, by simply spraying the surfaces to be cleaned and immediately rinsing off with a water jet, a wide variety of surfaces, such as painted and unpainted surfaces, surfaces made of plastic or leather,

: o smooth or grained surfaces, angled structures etc., without attacking them in any way or leaving any residue. The inventive Cleaning fluid has excellent creeping properties, which allows it to penetrate into inaccessible

2 => the brightest places to be approached and to be effective clean. The liquid also has very good dirt dissolving properties, which enables it to to remove stubborn dirt from the surfaces without mechanical action.

With the cleaning fluid according to the invention, it is possible, for example, to also clean heavily soiled ones Motorcycles, the cleaning of which was extremely laborious and required a lot of manual work, by bare Spray and unwind to clean. The different types of dirt to be washed off are removed safely and residue-free.

The cleaning liquid according to the invention owes its excellent properties to the combination of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate as a framework

• Ό punch with three different types of surfactants, namely the anionic alkyl polyglycol ether phosphate, the nonionic fatty alcohol-alkylene oxide adduct and the amphoteric ethyl fatty acid amidoethylamine Na salt. It also contains butyl glycol, a fluorine surfactant, as a solvent, sodium xylene sulfonate as a solubilizer and Na ₂ CrO ₄ as a corrosion inhibitor. This corrosion inhibitor ensures that the cleaning liquid does not attack any surfaces despite its basic alkaline setting.

^{1 (1} According to claim 2, the addition of a little alcohol has proven useful.

The cleaning results are improved according to the features of claim 5 in that for the Liquid desalinated water is used.

Claim 6 characterizes a formulation of the invention which has been particularly tried and tested in practice Cleaning fluid. In addition to the 20 percent by weight of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate, 2.7% Alkyl polyglycol ether phosphate, 2% fatty alcohol alkylene

oxide adduct, 5% ethyl fatty acid amidoethylamine Na salt, as solvent 2% butyl glycol, as alcohol 0.03% n-butanol, plus 0.05% fluorine surfactant and as Solubilizer 11% sodium xylene sulfonate, as a corrosion inhibitor 0.1% sodium chromate and demineralized water are used.
