Cleaning Gloves

By: Kelly 5C

Problem

Usually it takes more time for my nanny to clean the windows because she needs to spray with one hand and then take the napkin with the other hand and wipe it.

Purpose

Making my invention can really help my nanny to clean faster and easier.

What I already know

• There are many types of gloves. • Napkin can wipe things.

Finding Information

NapkinA napkin or face towel is a rectangle cloth usually

used in the restaurant for wiping mouth and fingers. It can also be used to clean windows.

The word napkin comes from Middle English, borrowing the word French nappe a cloth and

adding kin the diminutive suffix.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napkin

Gloves• Disposable Gloves. Disposable gloves, usually made of light-weight plastic, can

help guard against mild irritants.• Fabric Gloves. Made of cotton or fabric blends are generally used to improve grip

when handling slippery objects. They also help insulate hands from mild heat or cold.

• Leather Gloves. These gloves are used to guard against injuries from sparks or scraping against rough surfaces. They are also used in combination with an insulated liner when working with electricity.

• Metal Mesh Gloves. These gloves are used to protect hands form accidental cuts and scratches. They are used most commonly by persons working with cutting tools or other sharp instruments.

• Aluminized Gloves. Gloves made of aluminized fabric are designed to insulate hands from intense heat. These gloves are most commonly used by persons working molten materials.

• Chemical Resistance Gloves. These gloves may be made of rubber, neoprene, polyvinyl alcohol or vinyl, etc. The gloves protect hands from corrosives, oils, and solvents. The following table is provided as a guide to the different types of glove materials and the chemicals they can be used against. When selecting chemical resistance gloves, be sure to consult the manufacturers’ recommendations, especially if the gloved hand will be immersed in the chemical.
