Triangle Brush:
The Triangle Brush may be used for diverse applications
on many surfaces. It can be used on almost any dry
surface type including (but on limited to), Fabric, All
Metals, Ceramic, Stone, Porcelain, Vinyl, Leather and
Plastic.
Generally, use of the triangle brush is dictated by the size of the object or surface being
cleaned, rather than a specific surface type. The Triangle Brush is used when the surface
is too large to be cleaned with the Detail Tool or too small to be cleaned by the Wide
Brush. The Triangle Brush can also be used on large areas that are too dirty for the Wide
Brush to work effectively.
Use of a Cloth: The Triangle Brush can be used with or without a cloth. If a cloth is to be
used, there are clips on the brush to attach the cloth. When
used without a cloth on a hard surface, the surface will need to
be wiped with a clean, dry cloth immediately after passing over
the surface with the Triangle Brush.
Rough Textured surfaces: It is more desirable to clean without a
cloth or mitten over the brush.
Fabrics: A cloth is or is not necessary when cleaning fabrics. Placing a cloth over the
brush is not necessary when the desired goal is to sanitize the fabric more than to clean
it. To remove certain carpet stains, place a terry cloth or microfiber cloth on the stain
and gently apply the brush to the stain. The stain will incrementally be driven into the
cloth. Gradually move the cloth to absorb the stain into the clean areas of the cloth,
until the stain is gone.
Most of the time, better results will be achieved by placing a terry or microfiber cloth
over the Triangle Brush. This is done by placing the cloth on a smooth surface and neatly
folding the cloth over the brush. Push down on the clips (located on top of the brush)
and tuck the cloth underneath.
Release the clips and the cloth will be securely fastened
to the brush. When covered with an absorbent cloth, cleaning becomes a one-step
process. Simply wipe the surface slowly and all dirt and debris will be driven into the
cloth, hard surfaces will usually dry in less than a minute.
