Short answer: An iZi-Clean Wonder Cloth traps dirt instead of moving it around. Millions of ultra-fine fibres with a hook-and-loop structure grab dust, grease and moisture and hold on to them. That means water alone is enough for most jobs and the surface stays streak-free, even once it dries.
You clean, you walk away, and the moment the surface dries the smears are back. Below you read where that comes from and how the right cloth prevents it.
What does a Wonder Cloth do differently from a normal cloth?
A cotton cloth glides across the surface and pushes the dirt ahead of it. What you wipe away, you are really just spreading around again. An iZi-Clean Wonder Cloth consists of ultra-fine fibres built up like tiny hooks and loops. They grab dust, grease and moisture and only let go when you rinse or wash the cloth.
The difference is in the fibre
The fibres are many times thinner than a human hair. That creates an enormous contact surface which lifts dirt out of the pores. You have to rub less hard and you finish sooner.
Why is water alone often enough?
Because the cloth loosens and takes in the dirt mechanically, you do not have to dissolve it chemically. A damp cloth is enough for most of your house. That saves sprays in the cupboard, smells in the air and chemicals down the drain.
For baked-on grease in the kitchen you can add a mild product. More is not needed. Have a look at the guide to streak-free cleaning for the approach per surface.
Why do glass, mirrors and stainless steel stay streak-free?
Streaks appear when a thin layer of moisture with dissolved dirt is left behind and becomes visible as it dries. The fibres spread the moisture evenly and take it in straight away, so nothing is left to dry in. On glass, stainless steel, mirrors and polished wood you see that immediately.
For windows and mirrors the combination works best: clean damp first, then dry off with a dry cloth. See also our guide to cleaning mirrors streak-free.
Four colours, four zones
Work with a fixed colour per room. That way you never take the cloth from the toilet to the kitchen counter. It costs you no extra time and it keeps your home noticeably more hygienic.
How do you stop dragging dirt from one room into the next?
With a colour code. Give every room its own colour and stick to it. A common set-up:
- Blue for the bathroom
- Yellow for the kitchen
- Green for general surfaces
- Grey for the car
If you want enough cloths right away to keep that set-up going, have a look at the complete Wonder Cloth collection.
What do you gain from a cloth that lasts hundreds of washes?
A cloth you keep washing is one you do not have to keep buying. It replaces a stack of kitchen paper and disposable wipes, and you buy less cleaning product. That saves money and it saves waste.
Cleaning and drying are two jobs
A Drying Cloth M of 60x40 cm takes in a lot of moisture and is meant for drying off. Together with the Wonder Cloth you finish the round in one go: clean, dry off, done.
The Drying Cloth M of 60x40 cm is the logical companion for the shower, taps and worktop.
How do you wash your Wonder Cloths without damaging them?
- Wash at 40 degrees, without fabric softener
- Sort by colour, certainly for the first few washes
- Let them air dry and do not iron them
- Wash after an intensive session or every one to two weeks
Fabric softener leaves a film around the fibres. The cloth then feels soft but takes in far less, and that taking in is exactly what you buy it for.
Frequently asked questions about Wonder Cloths
Why an iZi-Clean Wonder Cloth and not a normal cloth?
A normal cloth mostly pushes dirt back and forth and leaves streaks behind as it dries. The ultra-fine fibres of the Wonder Cloth trap dust, grease and moisture and hold on to them until you rinse or wash the cloth. That keeps the surface clear, even as it dries.
Do I need cleaning product?
For most jobs water is enough. The fibres do the work. For stubborn grease you may add a mild product. Harsh chemicals are not needed and can damage the fibres.
How often should I wash the cloths?
After an intensive cleaning session, or every one to two weeks with normal use. A clean cloth takes in more and lasts longer.
How do I wash the cloths without damaging them?
Wash at 40 degrees without fabric softener. Fabric softener leaves a film around the fibres which makes them take in less. Let the cloths air dry and do not iron them.
Are Wonder Cloths really cheaper than disposable wipes?
Yes. One cloth lasts hundreds of washes and so replaces a large stack of kitchen paper and disposable wipes. You buy fewer sprays and throw less away.
Can I use them on delicate surfaces?
Yes. The fibres are softer than cotton, so you can use them on screens, glasses, lacquered wood and polished metal. Do avoid sharp edges, because a woven cloth can catch on them.
