Abstract: A disposable cleaning article for removing particulate matter from various materials especially clothing is disclosed. The cleaning article comprises two similarly shaped and aligned plastic sheets which are affixed to each other along the periphery of the sheets, thereby forming a pocket area between the plastic sheets. The affixed first and second plastic sheets have at least one opening to provide access to the pocket area in order to allow for manual direction of the cleaning article along a surface to be cleaned. One surface of the device is coated with an adhesive suitable for collecting particulate matter such as lint. A cover sheet is detachably secured to the adhesive material to protect the adhesive coated surface prior to use of the cleaning article.
