Gravimetric

The coupons were selected and arranged in sets of three for each cleaner. Cleaners used were Consume Nature's Way (1:20), Ecologo DX-50 (1:16), and Green seal DX-50 (1:16). The initial weights were first taken followed by soiling each set of coupons with 1 gram of Hucker's Soil. The testing plan called for aging for 24 hours in an ambient lab environment. The following day, dirty weights were recorded. Coupons were cleaned using a Straight Line Washability unit. Two sprays of cleaner were applied to each coupon and on the towel before cleaning began. Coupons were wiped 20 times. Coupons were weighed again to determine clean weights.
