| Abstract: |
An attachment for a squeegee includes a resilient mounting member to which a liquid applicator is connected. The liquid applicator preferably comprises a water retentive pad or the like, and the mounting member is preferably formed of a resilient material, such as plastic, which is adapted for connection to the squeegee. The resilient mounting of the pad to the squeegee urges the liquid applicator against the surface being cleaned, and the pad is maintained in a position adjacent the squeegee blade when the blade is placed on the surface.

I claim:
1. A cleaning tool, comprising:
- a squeegee including a handle to which a blade is mounted at an end thereof;
- liquid applicator means including a liquid applicator surface; and
- resilient mounting member for mounting said liquid applicator means to said squeegee, said resilient mounting member including a downwardly extending first portion connectable to said squeegee and an upwardly extending second portion to which said liquid applicator means is mounted, said resilient mounting member maintaining said liquid applicator surface in a position spaced from said squeegee blade when said cleaning tool is not in use, and said resilient mounting member being adapted to flex so as to allow a substantial amount of movement of said liquid applicator surface toward said squeegee blade when said cleaning tool is in use and said squeegee blade is positioned against a surface, said resilient mounting member acting to maintain said liquid applicator surface in contact with said surface and adjacent said squeegee blade for applying liquid to said surface just prior to removal of liquid from said surface by said squeegee blade.
