Jason I think I get what you're asking.
I call anything I'm spraying a "cleaning solution". If asked further, I'll explain (depending on what I'm using) it's either a detergent or a non-toxic product and give them a bit of spiel about the benefits of hugging trees.
Nobody's ever had an orgasm when they find out my carpet cleaning product isn't going to kill the fishy wishys in the wivvers :

As said above, the only concern people have ever shown is for their babies or cats being on the carpet.
P.S. M-Power & Nemesis are a "colloid", and it is totally true about them being used for oil clean ups (and the exxon clean-up killing more wildlife than the spill). Colloidal suspensions have been in use for many many years in chemistry. But Colloids go further back still... millions of years, to the evolution of mammals -- milk is a colloid

I hate the word "Microsplitter" because it's a bullpoo word, made up by somebody somewhere as a marketing tool as much as anything :

The nearest scientific catch-all term might be "a mixture of sodium derivatives" but that's not quite as catchy, is it
