Flipper Cleaning Mitt 1pk
A dual-sided mitt for the outside of the glass — terry cloth one side, microfiber the other. The Flipper Cleaning Mitt slips over your hand for wiping water spots, dust and light grime off the outside of an aquarium or terrarium, then flips to a microfiber face for a streak-free polish. It's a single mitt, machine washable, and works on any glass or acrylic surface around the tank — not just the display pane.
Key features
- Two surfaces in one mitt — terry cloth absorbs spills and general grime, microfiber finishes with a streak-free polish.
- Machine washable — reuse it rather than working through paper towel.
- Fits over the hand — easier to control on lids, trim and stand edges than a flat cloth.
- Not limited to the tank — the same mitt handles benchtops, cabinet glass and stand surfaces nearby.

Common questions
Which side do I use first?
Terry cloth first, to lift spills and general grime, then flip to the microfiber face for a streak-free finish.
Can I use this inside the tank?
No, it's a dry mitt for external surfaces. For the inside of the glass, use a magnetic cleaner instead.
Is it safe on acrylic?
Yes, both the terry cloth and microfiber faces are soft enough for acrylic as well as glass.
How do I wash it?
Machine wash and air dry. Skip fabric softener so the microfiber face keeps its polishing performance.
