To help professional contractors extend the service life of their hand tools, Ideal Industries has introduced new Ideal-Wipes multipurpose towels. Packaged in a re-closable, moisture-retaining dispenser, these 82 disposable wipes do not require water to activate their cleaning solution. Ideal Industries claims its wipes clean tools of deeply embedded dirt, grease, grime or lubricating fluid, yet are safe to use on hands. Infused with Vitamin E and natural moisturizers, the wipes prevent skin from chapping, cracking or drying. Plus, the orange-scented wipes will not leave an odor on the skin like other cleaning agents. Ideal-Wipes have two sides: a non-scratching, textured side for scrubbing tools and hands, and a smooth wiping side for delicate surfaces.
