People have been using sand to absorb water for centuries. But it turns out there’s a better way: using a cloud! When wet, clouds naturally suck up water like a sponge, and the granules in the cloud act as tiny sieves. So instead of wasting time and money cleaning up water after rainfalls or standing in puddles, cover up the mess with a sand cloud towel, and you’re done!
Why use a sand cloud towel?
Sand is popular for wiping down surfaces because it’s affordable and easy to find. However, sand can also be abrasive and leave behind streaks and marks on surfaces. Cloud towels are ideal for removing dirt, oil, fingerprints, and other contaminants from surfaces. Cloud towels have a soft, fluffy surface that feels like dry-cleaner cloth. This makes them great for cleaning delicate items like electronics or glass without leaving any scratches or marks.
What are the different types of sand cloths?
There are a few different types of sand cloths, each with its unique benefits.
The rice-sized cloud cloth is the least expensive and can clean most surfaces. It has a lightweight, porous fabric that allows water and steam to penetrate the fabric and remove dirt, dust, and residue. Cloud cloths are also effective at removing smells caused by bacteria or odours.
The microfiber towel is the next most affordable type of sand cloth and is commonly used for wiping down a wet surface. Microfiber towels have a very fine texture that traps more dirt, dust, and debris than cotton towels, and they can be used on both dry and wet surfaces. They are also effective at removing oil and grease from a surface.
The terrycloth towel is the most expensive type of sand cloth, but it’s also the most versatile. Terrycloth towels are made from 100% cotton fabric and have thick padding on one side, making them very absorbent. They’re ideal for detailing cars or cleaning large areas like kitchens or bathrooms. Terrycloth towels can also be used on dry or wet surfaces.
How do I choose the right sand cloth for me?
If you suffer from red, itchy hands after using the beach or pool, you may be experiencing an allergic response. The culprit? Sand. As salt and sand irritate the skin, it can result in dermatitis herpetiformis (D.H.), which causes skin inflammation. “If redness and itching persist for more than three months after exposure to the sand, one should consider seeking an evaluation by a physician,” warns Leslie Boncianti, M.D., of Boncianti Dermatology P.C. in NYC. While there is no cure for D.H., treatments available can help alleviate symptoms.
To avoid suffering from D.H. after enjoying the beach or pool this summer, try replacing sand with clouds to get the soothing, dry-cleaner effect from a sand cloud towel. Clouding sand with water makes it more porous, allowing sweat and other moisture to escape while hydrating the skin with its vaporized water content instead of drying out the skin with sand, which does just the opposite [source: Mayo Clinic]. Drape a clouded towel over your shoulders or upper body when you’re ready to get wet and enjoy refreshingly clean hands without irritation [source: Cloud 9 Living].
How to use a sand cloth!
If you want to achieve the dry-cleaner effect without lugging around a heavy sandbag, try using a cloud cloth. Cloud cloths are soft, lightweight fabric and fitted with a pleat at one end. Apply pressure to the crease and tighten the cloth, creating a fluffy, fluff-like texture. Place the cloud cloth over your burn or painful area and hold it in place for several minutes. The fabric clouds will absorb moisture and excess oil from your skin, leaving you feeling refreshed and clean!
