Paint Wiping Products
A & B Wiper Supply textile products can be found in national chains as well as local hardware and paint stores throughout the country. Some of the included products are; terry staining towels, various wipes and new colored knits.

There are several things to consider when purchasing wiping cloths and wipers for paint applications. Our most popular wipers for paint and hardware distribution are based on several factors:

1. Chemicals: Many times products used for paint removal can also strip the color off a dyed wiper. This can cause a problem if the painters equipment or painting surface is damaged due to dye bleeding off the wiping product. If strong stains, thinners, or other chemicals are being used, we suggest white wipers only.

2. Surface: Used clothing or wipers with assorted constructions can be abrasive to sensitive surfaces. If a painter is working on an expensive or time consuming project, a cheap wiper will have no savings if it takes more time to complete.

3. Performance: For specialty staining, faux finishing, or smaller detail work it’s essential to select a wiper that will enhance the painters’ performance. Cheesecloth, specific terry products, and ultra soft finishing products are the most popular for fine detail work.

A&B Wiper has also expanded it's line to carry manufacturers support items such as:

Another essential component to a quality drop cloth is the weave. If the drop cloth is porous, it WON’T work. Hold the drop cloth up to a light, if beams of light can get through, paint can too!
