Pretty cheap cleaning tool found at wallymart

[koifeeder]

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know I found a little cleaning tool, the Sonic Scrubber at wal-mart. Was $9 bucks and so far seems to be good at getting in the little spaces in a pachinko machine. They also sell an accessory kit, but thats another $9, so I thought I would wait on that.

The cleaning head is about the size of a dime or nickel. The bristles can not reach all the way down from the tip of the nail to the board, but seems to make cleaning a little more easier. Walmart didn't have all the accessories, just the main kit. The companies website that shows more is : www.sonicscrubber.com. I think the kitchen/household large soft bristle brush might be a good one, not sure yet.

seems like one could cut off the existing brushes and glue on a longer brush head?

I've seen those but was wondering if I could modify an old Oral B toothbrush set. The only problem with those is that the head is 90 degrees where as the sonic looks like a 30-45.

I thought the same thing about the Dental tool, but it was like $90, so i decided not to ruin my wife's tooth brush.

I'm impressed and Wal Mart is just across the field. There is a sonic in my future.

Here is another thread with some ideas.

sounds interesting, I'll have to look in to that one.

Another interesting tool I've seen is the Neutragena Wave facial cleaner. I wonder if it would make a good plastic polisher, using the appropriate polishes?

[koifeeder]

Haven't seen that one, too bad my wife don't have it, the wave sounds interesting too I've already got in trouble for using tweesers and nail file HAHAHA

I like the sonic scrubber guy...he sells the funny squeegee mop too..good product.
He's way better than the oxyclean, hurclues hook, mighty puddy guy. Too much Just For Men in his beard...I dont trust him.

whats funny if u know what i'm talking about... u watch too much 3am TV...like me.

I actually saw it in an ad on tv. The Clean and Clear Blackhead Eraser looks to be a similar device that would be good for polishing also.

This may be weird request, but you know how Wal-Mart is. Compirate, where was it in WM? I would like to try and find one today. I have to go get fire starters anyway. It's cold and snowy today.

[compirate]

look in lotions and skin care, usually close to shampoo and makeup

[dattia]

Yes, it is in the skin care, specifically cleansers, section. Dove also has something similar with a longer handle. Not sure if the angle of that is desirable or not.

Dove Skin Vitalizer

My daughter has the one Compirate mentioned.

[who922]

Thanks. I'm sure this has been covered before, but what kind of cleaner should I put on it?

[dattia]

I'm not really sure how well those ladies skin care tools would work. They use pre-soaped pads on them, but there are unsoaped make-up remover pads available in the skin care department also and even in the dollar store that would probably be usable. This type of cleaner doesn't look like it would allow you to get between the nails or perhaps even between the rows of nails.

I think a brush would probably be a better fix... but keep in mind that I have never cleaned a machine.

[who922]

Ok, I think I have confused myself and everyone else. I wanted to know where to find the Sonic Scrubber in Wal Mart. And then I wanted to know what polish to put on it.

[dattia]

[compirate]

My thought was to use one with some kind of basic, not pre-treated pad and Novis plastic polish/scratch remover, kinda like a car buffer, but smaller.
