Ross, It's like a cellulose sponge only tougher than most. I order them direct from Armaly as they got difficult to find locally. 800 772-1222

Dan, Do you buy these sponges from a local source, like a paint store, or do you mail order them?

Is it basically a foam or hydrophilic sponge?

 

Thanks,

Ross Alexander

I like the Armaly proplus heavy duty sponge (large). It's a 2" x 4 x 6 brick shaped sponge. fits very well in the hand. This is a tough sponge that requires some breaking in to reach optimum absorbancy. I use it for wiping sills,ledges and squeegee blade and scrubbing small panes and problem areas ( fingerprints, etc.). Also for cleaning frames and is tough enough for screen wiping. It's almost allways in my left  hand. Saves a lot on towel use. Not quite as absorbant as the natural sponge but much tougher, longer lasting and cheaper (about $1.15 each). Sometimes have to follow with towel when detailing light colored interior frames and sills, but mostly just use towels for glass edges.Armaly Brands 800 772- 1222
