CLEANING TOWEL a towel is a
piece of absorbent fabric or paper used for drying or
wiping the body or a surface. It draws moisture through
direct contact, often using a blotting, or a rubbing motion.
In households, several types of fabric towels are
used, including hand towels, bath towels and kitchen
towels. In warm climates people may also use beach
towels. Paper towels are provided in commercial or office
bathrooms for users to dry their hands. Paper towels are
also used in households for a range of wiping, cleaning
and drying tasks.
RUBBER GLOVES a rubber glove
is a glove made out o a rubber. Rubber gloves can be
unsupported (rubber only) or supported (rubber
coating of textile glove). Its primary purpose is
protection of the hands while performing tasks
involving chemicals. Rubber gloves can be worn
during dishwashing to protect the hands from
detergent and allow the use of hotter water.
BUCKET a bucket or pail is typically a
watertight, vertical cylinder or truncated cone, with
an open top and a flat bottom, attached to a
semicircular carrying handle called bail.
SCOURING PADS a scouring pad
or scourer is a small pad of metal or plastic mesh
used for scouring a surface. Some scouring pads
have one side made of a soft sponge-like materials
and the other is the aforementioned mesh.
TOILET BOWL CLEANER
badly soiled toilets and urinals need special attention. Toilet
Bowl Cleaner has the power to quickly remove rust, dissolve
organic stains and eliminate hard water residue.
HAND BRUSH is a tool with bristles,
wire or other filaments, used for cleaning surface
finishing and for many other purposes. It is one of
the most basic and versatile tools known to mankind,
and the average household may contain several
dozen varieties. It generally consists of a handle or
block to which filaments are affixed either parallel-
or perpendicular-wise, depending on the way the
brush is to be gripped during use. The material of
both the block and bristles or filaments is chosen to
withstand hazards of its application, such as
corrosive chemicals, heat or abrasion.
ALL-PURPOSE CLEANER
are usually concentrated solutions or surfactants and
water softeners, which enhance the behavior of
surfactant in hard water. Typical surfactants are
alkybenzenesulfonates, an anionic detergent, and
modified fatty alcohols. A typical water softener is
sodium triphosphate.
WARM WATER has faster moving
molecules which bombards the impurity which helps
to clean.
