Abstract

The Grease Getter is the only product of its kind that utilizes a cardboard blade that can be disposed of and can be used by any company or service that performs or provides lubrication of machines and vehicles as a go-to accessory for post-work clean-up. This unprecedented product is uniquely designed with durable, high-quality materials to ensure long-term sustainability and can be used on any surface to address oil spills and stains, in private or commercial settings.

Description

BACKGROUND

The management of oil and grease, after vehicle repair and/or restoration, can create nightmare stains that tarnish the floor of a professional site. Typically, cleaning such spills requires immediate care, an excessive amount of scrubbing/physical labor and often individuals will need to spend countless hours using rags in an attempt to remove all the grease. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem.

An apparatus to simplify and improve the ability to clean up oil and grease, easing the labor required to do so, is not being met by any known device or system at present. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem either.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The main purpose of the grease squeegee is to provide users with a tool that effectively scrapes remaining automotive grease off of a garage floor post lubrication of automotive chassis and suspension services.

The present disclosed grease squeegee, also known as “Grease Getter”, offers a modern accessory that ensures users are able to quickly, effectively, and effortlessly remove grease and oil spills without excessive physical labor. Expanding on the initial design of a long bar with a handle, the Grease Getter introduces a novel disposable cardboard blade that allows its users to completely scrape grease remains off of the floor from a standing position instead of wiping it off with a rag. The cardboard grease scraping card conveniently attaches to the long bar and can be easily switched out and disposed of once the operation is complete. With the Grease Getter, users will no longer have to waste precious time trying to hopelessly remove grease residue with a traditional rag. This innovative, top-quality product will benefit all individuals who seek to have a more effective means of cleaning excess grease and oil off of floors, garages and/or other surfaces.

Although the operations of the method(s) herein are shown and described in a particular order, the order of the operations of each method may be altered so that certain operations may be performed in an inverse order or so that certain operations may be performed, at least in part, concurrently with other operations. In another embodiment, instructions or sub-operations of distinct operations may be implemented in an intermittent and/or alternating manner.
