Scrubbing Sponge VILEDA Green Pad (model 101404) — scouring pad for stubborn dirt

The VILEDA Green Pad scrubbing sponge (model 101404) combines an abrasive green scouring layer with a soft sponge backing to remove stubborn dirt, grease and baked-on residues from cookware, worktops and other household surfaces. Designed for manual cleaning, this scouring pad retains cleaning liquids while providing mechanical action to tackle spots and grime in kitchens, bathrooms and utility areas.

Advantages

The dual-layer construction offers abrasive scrubbing power on one side and absorbent sponge material on the other, enabling both targeted scouring and wiping in a single tool. The green abrasive layer is formulated to remove hard-to-shift dirt without shredding easily, while the sponge backing holds detergents and rinses clean after use. The pad's size and shape fit comfortably in the hand for controlled scrubbing motions.

Suitable for

• Removing baked-on food and grease from pots, pans and oven racks
• Cleaning hard kitchen surfaces such as stovetops, sinks and countertops
• Scrubbing bathroom fixtures, tiles and grout where stubborn deposits appear
• General household spot cleaning where abrasive action is needed

When it may not be suitable

The abrasive green side is intended for durable surfaces; it may cause visible scratches or dulling on delicate, non-stick, polished, coated or easily marred surfaces. Avoid use on surfaces specified by manufacturers as unsuitable for abrasive cleaners. For fine or high-gloss finishes, test in an inconspicuous area before full use.

Key specifications

• Construction: dual-layer – abrasive scouring pad bonded to sponge backing
• Primary materials: synthetic abrasive layer and cellulose/polyurethane sponge
• Function: manual scouring and wiping, liquid retention for detergents
• Typical use areas: kitchenware, countertops, sinks, bathroom fixtures

How to use

Apply a suitable cleaning liquid to the sponge side or directly to the surface. Use the green abrasive side to scrub stubborn residues with controlled pressure, then flip to the sponge side to absorb loosened dirt and rinse away cleaning solution. Rinse the pad thoroughly after use and allow it to dry to reduce odour and bacterial growth. Replace the pad when the abrasive layer wears down or the sponge no longer cleans effectively.

What to consider before purchase

• Surface compatibility: not recommended for delicate, non-stick or highly polished finishes
• Intended use: manual scouring for stubborn dirt rather than gentle cleaning
• Replacement frequency: abrasive performance reduces with heavy or frequent use

Usage recommendations

Use the VILEDA Green Pad with appropriate detergents and moderate pressure. For coated or sensitive surfaces, perform a small-area test first. Rinse and dry the pad after each use and store in a ventilated place to prolong service life.
