ABSTRACT:
Acid-reactive organic and inorganic matter, such as stains and/or deposits, is removed from substrates by contacting such matter with a composition containing urea and sulfuric acid in which the urea/sulfuric acid molar ratio is less than 2. The urea-sulfuric acid compositions may optionally contain other components such as water, surfactants, and/or non-aqueous polar solvents which accentuate the activity of the compositions toward hydrophobic materials. The water-containing compositions which have H.sub.2 O/(urea+H.sub.2 SO.sub.4) molar ratios below about 2.5 are particularly useful for removing hydrolyzable matter by partial or complete hydroylsis.
