Abstract

A brush suitable for performing at least one of a cleaning, buffing, and polishing action on a surface without requiring water comprises a core member, the core member having a central axis surrounded by a plurality of C-channel grooves and a plurality of sheets of material, each sheet of material comprised of closed-cell silicone foam rubber, being folded to define a double-sided flap, and secured to a respective one of the plurality of C-channel grooves. The sheet of material is secured to the core member to permit relative movement of the double-sided flap with respect to the surface in at least a first direction, and the relative movement of the double-sided flap produces at least one of the cleaning, buffing and/or polishing action on the surface without requiring water.
