What are Universal Cloths made from?
✓ The blend
Both Universal Cloths and Glass Cloths are made from the same 84% polyester and 16% polyamide microfibre blend. 84% polyester gives the cloth structure and durability, so it holds shape through thousands of washes. 16% polyamide gives the fibres their grip and absorbency, so they trap dirt and water rather than push it around. The split-fibre weave creates millions of tiny hooks that physically grab onto grime, which is why microfibre cleans effectively with just water on most surfaces.
What's the GSM difference between Universal Cloths and Glass Cloths?
✓ Universal Cloths: 420 GSM
Thicker and plusher. More fibres per square metre means more absorbency and more scrubbing surface. Built for benches, tiles, sinks, taps, stovetops, and general surface work.
✓ Glass Cloths: 300 GSM
Slightly lighter with a tighter weave. Glides smoothly over smooth surfaces without leaving streaks or lint. Built for windows, mirrors, glass shower screens, and chrome.
