Either our SCOTT® SHOP TOWELS ON A ROLL Towels
or SCOTT® RAGS IN A BOX Towels do an excellent job
absorbing oil and other liquids or messy spills. A good
practice is to have one of the SCOTT® SHOP TOWELS ON A
ROLL Towels towels handy when changing oil to catch any drips
and clean up a spill. They are great for wiping down the entire
“under the hood” area. Remember to dispose of any oily waste
properly.

These products are remarkably low in lint and will do an
excellent job cleaning windows and other surfaces.

SCOTT® Shop Towels handle most tough clean-up challenges.
However, certain harsh solvents require special clean-up materials.
For those tough chemicals, you may need SHOPPRO® Shop
Towels. Check it out on our DIY news page.

Kimberly-Clark manufactures the fabric from durable cellulose
which has been creped for softness and absorbency. Reinforcing
latex binder is applied to the fabric surface for strength and integrity.
The resulting fabric is remarkably cloth-like, handling the tough
clean-up challenges. On dropcloths, the same type fabric is utilized
with the application of a slip resistant poly film to the back to resist
leak through of paint splatters or spills.

We recommend using SCOTT® RAGS IN A BOX Towels (fresh
towels) for cleaning brushes, spills, drips and mistakes. They are
highly absorbent, resists bleed through and are very economical
to use. Clean up all types of paint and stain then dispose of the
messy towels appropriately.

SCOTT® RAGS IN A BOX Towels will not scratch hard surfaces
such as paint on a car, windows or mirrors. Make sure the surface
to be waxed and buffed is clean and free from any dirt or grit
particles or scratching may result.

We recommend using SCOTT® RAGS IN A BOX Towels (fresh
towels) for absorbing pet messes.

Our Rags / Shop Towels / Dropcloths offer the same or better
performance compared to cloth (or canvas) and cost much less.
Refer to the nearest retailer in your area for specific pricing.

Any disposable product should first be thoroughly dried out (air
dried so the rag or towel is not dripping liquid). The dried out rag
or towel can then be disposed of properly. CAUTION: If you have
been using a solvent, for safety sake make sure you dry out the
towel in a well ventilated area or outside.

While our products are not toxic and excellent at cleaning up spills
and messes, they are not intended for use with food, and have not
been tested for direct contact with food products. We do not
recommend use in that way.

Our products are manufactured with an extra durable construction.
They work like cloth and can be used again and again.

Our GOTCHA COVERED® Dropcloths and Professional Dropcloths
are available in a variety of sizes from 4 foot wide runners great for
use in hallways and perimeter wall painting through 8' X 12', 9' X 12'
and 12' X 15' for the really big jobs including protecting furniture.

Our GOTCHA COVERED® and Professional Dropcloths are
designed to absorb paint on the fiber side which should face
up. The back or down side is coated with a non-slip, leak resistant
poly film. The poly film side is smoother than the absorbent fiber
side. An easy way to distinguish this is to drop a small amount of
water on the surface you want to test. The water will bead up on the
poly film side but absorb quickly into the absorbent fiber side.

Our towels will not scratch hard surfaces such as paint on a car,
windows or mirrors. However wiping a dirty surface dry (without
the lubricating action of a wax or cleaning solution) may result in
scratches regardless of what material is used to wipe.
