Abstract: A garment, in the form of an apron, holds an electrical cord out of the way. The apron includes an elongated length of material having a front panel, a rear panel, and a neck portion adapted to fit about a person's neck and a plurality of releasable fasteners for securing the cord to the elongated length of material. The length of material is adapted to cover a person's torso. The releasable fasteners may be attached to the neck portion and to the elongated length of material. Each of the fasteners may include a strap adapted to hold the cord and hook and loop type fasteners.

Abstract: A buffing pad primarily for automobiles includes a foam layer and filaments of textile material interspersed throughout the foam layer and extending passed or exposed at the working surface of the pad. The filaments are needle punched through the foam layer. The filaments may be felt fiber such as wool fiber, cotton fiber, or the like.

Abstract: A buffing pad that includes a substantially conventional buffing pad made of tufted wool that includes a backing plate and a central hub for attachment to the shaft of a rotary power buffer. The tufts or strands of wool are of a first and substantially equal length and of a substantially uniform color. The pad also carries a plurality of shorter tufts of wool or other fiber of a contrasting color. When the pad is relatively new, the shorter tufts are not normally visible as they are hidden by the longer tufts. As the pad becomes worn, however, the longer tufts become shorter and matted down thereby exposing the shorter tufts. The appearance of the contrasting color of the shorter tufts is an indicator that the pad is worn and should be replaced.
