Abstract
An apparatus for sanitizing or dampening objects comprising a container having corner pockets that support springs is provided. Springs are extended upwardly from the corner pockets. A platform is positioned above container, wherein pocket covers on the platform are aligned with the springs and substantially cover them. The platform is adapted to support the object to be sanitized or dampened. When a pressure is applied to the platform, the platform can move downward into a solution contained in the container, dampening or sanitizing the object supported by the platform. A cover is sized to cover an opening on the platform. Alternatively, the cover can be housed underneath the container.
