Abstract
A swimming pool scrubber has a handle adapted for receiving an extension handle. Attached at an angle to the handle is a ball. Rotatably mounted on the ball by a socket is a rubbery disc. Removably mounted on the front face of the disc is an abrasive cleaning pad with holes for a supply of cleaning compound. The disc has a high friction edge for rolling on the bottom of a swimming pool gutter while the pad is against the vertical wall of the gutter. The edge friction causes the pad to rotate as it moves along the wall for enhanced scrubbing action.
