Re: microfibre cloths

They are good for all types of cleaning in and around the home and workplace and you don't have to use any chemical cleaners just water.

Good for getting a shine on any metal too.

I have used them for a few years now and just luv 'em. :inlove:

We use a mixture of gummed, with a plate and flat sponge, and Lion eco depending on the value/ conservation issues of that particular job.
