        Great sponge & very easy to rinse sand/grit out. It rings out very easily as well. I purchased 2 of them as I was not sure of the quality & didn't want to make a second trip for another one. Well, The first one I used is still in perfect shape & will last a long time. The second one I will use for my cars as I know it will be perfect for cleaning them & I can rinse all the dirt out of this sponge. Defiantly a great product & buy.

          A necessary item for wiping tile grout off of tiles after the first grouting. This is called the dirty wipe. You need this type of sponge. Rinse it out, use it again. Simple, really.
