A sponge is an absorbent or cellular cleaning material. Different sponge products are designed for different surfaces and tasks.
What this means at your property
A tool that works on a washable countertop may not suit a delicate finish or fire residue. Reusing a soiled sponge can also transfer material between areas. The tool should be selected as part of the cleaning method, not simply because it is available.
What should be checked before cleaning a valuable surface?
Identify the finish and residue, follow the material and product instructions, and discuss a test area where appropriate. Ask how tools will be kept suitable for the task and separated between work areas.
