Claims8
A cleaning device for narrow spaces of motor vehicles, comprising:
- a one-piece, elongated, resilient handle having first and second ends and a minimum length of approximately two feet, said handle further having a transverse hand grip on said first end, said hand grip having a cross member perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said handle, and wherein said handle and hand grip are both flat and coplanar;
- and
- a sponge mounted on said second end of said handle.
A cleaning device for narrow spaces of motor vehicles, comprising:
- a flat, one-piece, elongated, resilient handle having a parallel pair of major surfaces and adapted to deflect a distance of 4 inches over a given length of approximately 2 feet in an axial plane perpendicular to said major surfaces in response to a deflection force of approximately 5 ounces applied at one end of the given length in a direction perpendicular to said major surfaces in their relaxed state, said handle including a cross member integrally formed on one end thereof;
- and
- a sponge mounted on and enclosing said cross member on said one end of said handle and having an exposed sponge face on each major surface of said handle.
