Abstract

An adhesive tape brush for cleaning fabric includes a handle and a brush head. Multiple cleaning sheets are removably supported on a lower and upper surfaces of the brush head in a separable roll, non-movably fixed on the brush head. When the outermost sheet becomes soiled, the sheet may be peeled away to expose an underlying non-soiled sheet. The brush head is fixed relative to the handle so that the web of sheets is not movable to create a high amount of friction when the outermost sheet is engaged and moved along with a surface. An elongated tape roll refill has perforations in at least one location to allow the roll to be separated into smaller width portions for individual use. Another tape roll refill has a generally nominal circular cross-section, but is deformable to an oblate shape to be mountable on either circular or oblate shaped brush heads.
