Three coupons for each substrate for each cleaner were weighed for initial weights. About 0.15-0.2 g of Glass soil that was made previously was put onto the coupons and was left to dry overnight (24-hour dry time). The following day, dirty weights were taken and recorded. Three coupons of the same substrate were placed in the SLW Machine; there were w per Wypall (one Wypall per substrate, per cleaner) amounting to about 2.5 ml of each cleaning chemistry per coupon. The SLW Machine was run for 20 cycles (30 seconds of cleaning). The coupons were taken out and left to dry for another 24 hours. After the 24 hours, they were weighed again for final weights.
