Abstract
A jet spray fingernail cleaner apparatus including a pulsating pump. The pump has a fluid exhaust tube for releasing a fluid that is held within the pump. Included is a housing that has a bottom wall with an aperture and a cylindrical side wall. The side wall has a top edge for forming a top opening of the housing. The side wall has a pair of horizontal wedge-shaped arms along opposite portions of the side wall. Each arm has an arm tip extending past a rear portion of the arm. Included is an elongated resilient finger stall for positioning within the housing. The finger stall has an upper end and a rear end with a fluid intake line that extends therefrom and through the aperture of the bottom wall of the housing. The fluid intake line couples with the fluid exhaust tube of the pump for allowing a jet stream of fluid to flow into the finger stall. Lastly, an O-ring is positioned over the housing to secure the finger stall about the housing, when the upper end is folded around the housing.
