Abstract

This invention relates to a liquid applicator for applying a cleaning liquid. The applicator comprises a bottle, a container within the neck of the bottle containing a pad of polyurethane foam and a support structure which is attached to the body. A covering of woven synthetic material is welded to the support structure and is substantially unsupported over its main portion. The cleaning liquid passes through the foam material which causes it to froth and the frothed liquid passes in turn through the woven synthetic material to be applied easily to the material to be cleaned.
