The type of the silicone resin is completely arbitrary, and the form may be any of oil, emulsion and powder.

Acrylic acid or a derivative thereof acts as a water-repellent auxiliary. Examples of acrylic acid derivatives include cross-linked acrylic acid polymers, acrylic acid / alkyl methacrylate copolymers, and acrylic acid / maleic acid copolymers. Polymers and the like can be mentioned.

The above three components preferably contain 1 to 100 parts by weight of silicone resin and 1 to 100 parts by weight of polyacrylic acid or a derivative thereof with respect to 100 parts by weight of alkyl sulfate.

This water-repellent detergent may be used in combination with a detergent component which exhibits a solid state at normal temperature, in addition to the alkyl sulfate, and is preferably a fatty acid salt, polyoxyethylene, alkyl ether sulfate, alkylbenzene sulfonic acid. Salts and the like can be mentioned.

Further, in order to improve the moldability, the water-repellent detergent is further added with any of builders, thickeners, sugars, silicones, other water-soluble powders, or two or more of them. Can be.

The water-repellent cleaning agent may contain any optional components such as an abrasive, a coloring agent, a fragrance, a preservative and a bactericide, as required, in addition to the above components, without adversely affecting the painted surface. It can be appropriately added within the range.
