Cleaning cloths. The best are pure cotton —
white only. Notice that we call them "cleaning
cloths," so as not to suggest they're rags. Your
company may prefer microfiber cloths or a

carryall tray.”) It's simple but

Pump-spray furniture polish. Use one that fits

Furniture polishing cloth. Use only for furniture
polishing—not with Blue Juice or Red Juice.
Microfiber cloth is ideal for dry dusting and polish
dusting.
Powdered or liquid cleanser. (like Comet or Soft
Scrub) Use it to clean inside tubs, sinks, and toilets.
Most Cleansers can be abrasive and scratch delicate
surfaces. Pro Scrub is a safe alternative for many
hard surfaces.
One-pint plastic container. Use it in the bathroom
to help rinse the hard-to-reach areas of the shower.
It stays in your carryall tray over the top of the can of
cleanser when not in use.

cleaning supply that gets worn out, even
