Utility pads are
a larger version of scouring pad and can be attached to a
utility pad holder which can either comes with a hand held
handle or long pole handle. Utility pads are mostly used for
cleaning baseboards, scuff marks on floors, and built up floor
wax in hard to reach places. The average utility pad is about
10 inches long whereas a scouring pad is usually six inches or
less. A very popular utility pad is called a doodlebug pad
and is manufactured by 3M Corporation. The doodlebug pad is
popular because it comes with a pad holder system. The floor
hand pad holder has small teeth that grip to the pad and a
comfortable handle to reduce stress and fatigue for the user.
Pole pad holders also have small teeth that hold the pad, but
the actual holder itself can be attached to a pole to get at
hard to reach places. Utility hand pads come in different
grades of abrasion so it is possible to chose a suitable pad
for the task at hand. A common industry standard in hand pads
is that the darker the color pad usually has the coarsest
fibers and the lighter colors have denser fibers and are less
abrasive. The most common colors for utility pads are white,
blue, brown and black. White utility pads are equivalent to a
cleansing pad and used for cleaning delicate surfaces. Blue
utility pads are more for general use and are mildly abrasive
yet still effective at scrubbing. Brown utility pads are most
commonly used for scrubbing, scouring and removing light wax
build up on floors. Black utility pads are the most abrasive
and are great for tackling heavy amounts of built up wax in
hard to reach places. Utility pads are a necessity when
refinishing floors and are usually found in every floor
refinishing experts tool box.
