Abstract: The present invention provides a wet wipe prepared from at least a two layer laminate material. In addition to the laminate, the wet wipe also contains a cleaning fluid. As for the laminate, the laminate has a first layer which contains a web material capable of holding and releasing the cleaning fluid and a second layer, adjacent the first layer, which has, by virtue of its structure and/or composition, less affinity for the cleaning solution than the first layer. The first layer contains a larger percentage of the cleaning fluid than the second layer. Also disclosed is a three layer laminate containing wipe wherein the intermediate layer has less affinity for the cleaning solution than the outer layers.
