From rough scrubbing to fine dusting to final polishing - wipers are a pretty great way to tackle cleanups. A few things to keep in mind when choosing:
Lint:
Working on delicate electronics or printing presses? Don't want residue left behind? Low-lint wipers are best.
Absorbency:
For wiping your hands, or removing light dirt or soil, you don't need much absorbency. For wiping an oily part, or for a small spill cleanup, you'll want a lot more.
Wet & Dry Strength:
Coarse surfaces or rough edges? Wiping up solvents? Then you'll want a wiper with lots of strength and durability.
