With their large size, specialist formula with skin conditioners, and unique high-performance fabrics, Big Wipes can quickly remove unwanted substances such as PU foam, paint, varnish, silicones, glue, oil and grease from a wide range of different surfaces. The wipe can continue cleaning even when heavily soiled, so large clean-ups consume fewer wipes. The formula is biodegradable, preservative-free and compliant with the EU Cosmetics Directive, ensuring that Big Wipes are friendly to the environment and to the user's skin.
