The answer is not an easy one unless you know what ingredients the products contain. The most common ingredients in household cleaning products include alkalies, acids, detergents, abrasives, sanitizers, and spirit solvents. Alkalies Alkalies are soluble salts that are effective in removing dirt without excessive rubbing. They are good grease removers, because the alkalies form an emulsion, a mixture where oily or solid particles are held in suspension.
Alkalies readily remove oily dirt.
Alkaline cleaners also can remove oil from an oil-based paint, drying it and causing it to crack or peel. Alkalies also have a tendency to darken aluminum surfaces. Alkaline substances vary in strength. Most are toxic, some are corrosive, others can irritate skin and eyes. The stronger alkalies can cause burns and, if swallowed, can cause internal injuries or death.
