Does this sponge leave a lot of moisture behind after wiping a counter top?

I love this sponge but really use it for cleaning dishes, pots, pans, etc., not really for wiping a counter top. It's hold the suds very well. However, if the sponge is rung out very well, I suspect it would be fine for wiping a counter top. My own practice is to use a "regular" sponge for wiping the counter top but even a "regular" sponge, if not rung out well, will leave a lot of moisture behind.

Ricky, this the best sponge out there today. When you are wiping down a countertop there is virtually no water (liquids) left behind. It is virtually dry to the touch. Love that it doesn't fall apart with age like the other sponges on the market. My sponge has several war wounds from my knives and there is absolutely no shredding or signs of falling apart thus far. To me, it actually is getting better the more I use it.

Not unless there is a lot of moisture in the sponge when wiping! I LOVE theses sponges!

It's not a microfiber or anything, so there is usually a little moisture, like a normal sponge.

no not much, can use one side to scrub and the other to wipe it up. If there is more than I like I just squeeze it out and rewipe once.

No. But I use it to effectively clean glassware and cooking pots, and use cellulose sponges or microfiber cloths for counter tops. I love this sponge and wouldn't be without it. Taking it on a camping trip this summer. Dries quickly when stood up.

I rarely use this to wiipe counters.It is a great scruber for the stove top, and it does leave some moisture behind. I just deal with that with a paper towel.

I did my countertops a few months ago, and so far so good. If you leave things sitting on the counter for long periods, it leaves tiny indentions but they disappear over time. You do get very tiny scratches from cleaning but can not tell unless you are inches from the countertop. You must work quickly with this stuff because it does harden fast, but the end result looks nice as everyone thinks I have new granite countertops now.

Warm and damp if they start out damp. We use cloth wipes and we haven't had an issue with them drying out. If you don't have the antibacterial pad in the bottom, sometimes the last wipe will be dry. I just add a little bit of water to the warmer before adding my cloth, predampened wipes and I don't have any issues.

Warm and damp. There is a sponge you wet at the bottom then you put the damp wipes on top.

Hi Beth, I used this on my ceramic tile floors, granite kitchen counter tops "Cielo Blanco" and also on my bathroom counter tops" Bianco Antico" and they all came out wonderful. This sealer will leave a permanent protective coating which will last for a very long time. When dry this sealer will not enhance the sheen of you granite but will enhance its beauty and depth and will leave great protection against spills that if not protected would be able to soak in to the granite tending it to look dingy over time. Hope this helps!

I have black granite counters with sort of a grey fleck throughout but they mainly look black. There's zero film. I spray it on, leave it for about a minute or a bit less, then I rub it all around with the scratchy side of the sponge (to pick up dried food etc...) and then buff clean with paper towel (you could use a clean cloth too but paper towel is my preference). Results are great.

I have used it on my tops there a white, and on my table top. Have had no problem. If it would leave a mark it should wipe right off. If you are still worried get a cutting board to put it on.

It removed all of the build up on my refrigerator from oils transferred through the air, and just kitchen grime. I also was able to clean my stove front so it looked brand new with no drips, marks or spots. I did not use it on the top of the stove for residue there, that isn't stainless on my stove and requires a different type of cleaner. Hope that helps!

Mine is the same way. We have hard water in this area so I figure the residue is left over minerals after the water is boiled away. I just wipe with a paper towel. It hasn't been a problem.

I don't know why some sponges are damp inside the package. It has never been a problem, i.e., no musty smell. So I would not worry about it.

I have had it inside the shower cabinet for about 2 months now. Where I leave damp stuff over it I sometimes see some incipient rust, but it wipes right off. I live in a very humid place as well. I don't see myself replacing it any time soon.

The only scrubing you have to do is with soap and water with a SOS. Unless your counter tops are overly oily.

Only the top part of the slide is against my skin and yes it does get moisture at times. I just wipe it down, have not seen any signs of corrosion at all.

It only streaks if you use the pad too long. You should have multiple pads, so, when one is dirty, you can put on a clean one. The floor does stay damp until the moisture evaporates, which doesn't take long, unless, you live in SE Texas, like I do and then its expected. It's a steamer. When steam turns to a solid, it is water (moisture) on the floor. For it to totally evaporate when applied, it would have to be expelled at a higher temperature, but, as soon as it hits a cool floor, it is going to turn to moisture. It still doesn't take long to evaporate, usually 5 to 10 minutes versus mopping with a soaking wet mop. It only streaks if you use the pad too long.

It comes off very easy with a sponge and water. Mine didn't leave any marks

No, the humidity turns the towel to mush in a matter of a day or less. The parts are easy to clean... I would recommend just following the regular process.

Because it is a sponge, it does expand slightly as it absorbs water. After cleaning my sponge I allow it to air dry and store it in a plastic bag which i then place inside of my makeup bag. If you allow the sponge to touch other items it can store germs and bacteria, which will lead to breakouts and skin irritation.
