Abstract: A cleaner and polish article comprises a substrate capable of absorbing and retaining a fluid and having two opposed surfaces wherein at least one surface is abrasive, and a nonabrasive aqueous cleaner and polish formulation absorbed, in the substrate. The cleaner and polish formulation comprises an aqueous cleaning emulsion containing water, a surfactant and an organic solvent, a polishing agent, and a carrier, whereby cleansing and polishing action is achieved by the formulation, and abrasive cleansing action and polishing action is achieved by the cleaner and polish formulation as well as by the abrasive surface of the substrate. The substrate is further capable of absorbing the dissolved or softened soil residue to assist in the cleansing action. The substrate can comprise a cloth-like towel. A plurality of such towels is provided in a continuous roll placed in a selectively sealable, essentially airtight container.
Abstract: A paint and stain remover article comprises a substrate capable of absorbing and retaining a fluid with two opposed surfaces wherein at least one surface is abrasive, and a nonabrasive liquid formulation for removing paint, stains and other marks absorbed in the substrate, the liquid formulation comprising an aliphatic solvent, a terpene, a glycol ether or dibasic ester, and a ketone or acetate, whereby initial removal action is achieved by the liquid formulation, and final removal action is achieved by the abrasive surface of the substrate and by the absorption of the dissolved marking residue into the substrate. The substrate can comprise a cloth-like towel. A plurality of such towels is provided in a continuous rolled cylinder which is a selectively sealable, essentially airtight container. An opening in the lid of the container allows the user to remove individual towels which contain the appropriate amount of liquid formulation thereon.
Abstract: An abrasive hand cleaning article comprises a substrate presenting an abrasive surface and being capable of absorbing and retaining a fluid, and a nonabrasive aqueous hand cleanser absorbed in the substrate, the hand cleanser comprising one or both of a solvent and a surfactant whereby cleansing action is achieved by the solvent or surfactant, and abrasive cleansing action is achieved by the abrasive surface of the Substrate. The substrate can comprise a cloth-like towel. A plurality of such towels are provided in a continuous rolled cylinder which are housed in a selectively sealable, essentially airtight container. An opening in the lid of the container allows the user to remove individual towels which contain the appropriate amount of cleanser thereon.
