Applicator Sleeves
« on: December 11, 2006, 06:34:53 pm »
Hi!  How often do you wash your applicator sleeves might I ask?

I had a new one about 2 month ago and still have'nt washed it does it make much difference?? 

What do you do??

Haven’t  noticed any difference.

Been doing it that way for 6 months now.

i rinse mine every morning with the shower head as i'm filling my bucket, never  actually washed one in the machine. just remember- whatever is on the aplicator is going on the window. ;)

I wash it once in 2 months or so, I have a micro sleeve from Unger, and they don't seem to get really dirty. Just give it a good scrub with your hands after you've finished and wring it out.

At the other hand, I use an abrasive pad scrubber/applicator for first cleans, and that one does get dirty real quick, the plush side is white, that is seriously stupid lol.
