2 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the alcohol comprises a C4-C6 linear mono-alcohol selected from the group consisting of pentanol, hexanol and mixtures thereof.

3 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the alcohol comprises a C4-C6 linear mono-alcohol selected from the group consisting of 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, and mixtures thereof.

4 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the alcohol comprises a branched C4-C10 mono-alcohol selected from the group consisting of C4-C8 branched primary mono-alcohol, with one to three C1 to C4 alkyl branching groups, and mixtures thereof.

5 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the alcohol comprises an alkyl mono-glycerol selected from the group consisting of branched alkyl glycerols and mixtures thereof.

6 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the alcohol comprises an alkyl mono-glycerol selected from the group consisting of ethylhexylglycerol, propylheptylglycerol, and mixtures thereof.

7 . A product according to any claim 1 wherein the alcohol is a mixture of alcohols comprising an alcohol selected from the group consisting of branched C4-C8 mono-alcohols,

8 . A product according to any claim 1 wherein the alcohol is a mixture of alcohols comprising an alcohol selected from the group consisting of branched C4-C8 mono-alcohols and an alcohol selected of the group consisting of C4-C6 linear mono-alcohols and alkyl mono-glycerols.

9 . A product according to a claim 1 wherein the composition has a pH greater than 8, from about 10.5 to about 11.5 as measured at 10% solution in distilled water at 20° C. and a reserve alkalinity of from about 0.1 to about 1 expressed as g NAOH/100 ml of composition at a pH of 10.

10 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the surfactant system and the alcohol are in a weight ratio of from about 5:1 to about 1:1.

11 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the surfactant system comprises an anionic surfactant and a co-surfactant.

12 . A product according to claim 8 wherein the surfactant system comprises an anionic surfactant and a co-surfactant and wherein the anionic surfactant comprises an alkyl ethoxylated sulfate surfactant.

13 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the surfactant system comprises an anionic surfactant and a co-surfactant and wherein the anionic surfactant comprises a hexyl sulfate.

14 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the surfactant system comprises an anionic surfactant and a co-surfactant and wherein the anionic surfactant and the co-surfactant are present in a weight ratio of about 4:1 to about 1:1 and wherein the co-surfactant is selected from the group consisting of amphoteric surfactant, zwitteronic surfactant and mixtures thereof.

15 . A product according to claim 1 wherein the composition further comprises a glycol ether solvent selected from the group consisting of glycol ethers of Formula I: R1O(R2O)nR3, Formula II: R4O(R5O)nR6 and mixtures thereof wherein R1 is a linear or branched C4, C5 or C6 alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, R2 is ethyl or isopropyl, R3 is hydrogen or methyl and n is 1, 2 or 3, R4 is n-propyl or isopropyl, R5 is isopropyl, R6 is hydrogen or methyl and n is 1, 2 or 3.
