I wanted to use these sponges for cleaning saddles and bridles... and bathe my horses... one sponge cannot fold around the reigns...! I included a picture to show the actual size of these sponges; my hands are not very big... so future customers know what they are buying... Read more

I'm a professional face painter (you can find me on IG as The_Cheeky_Chipmunk ) and these are an AMAZING value. I cut them in half with long sharp fabric shears, so the cut is beautifully crisp. Then I use them to apply face paint on children. They wash well with very hot water and gentle soap, and are easy to dye with synthetic black dye if you are the kind of face painter who likes to do that sort of thing. This makes it very affordable to use one sponge per child at events, which is what my company does. I bought several of these packs and cut them all in half, and I always have more than enough for a weekend of multiple events. Read more

I'm so glad I spent the extra few dollars and chose these sponges. The other reviewer's photo made these sponges look no different than the cheapest cheapy synthetic sponges. However, it is different!The vertical row is from bottom to top, (This sponge, obviously the newest looking one), (Cheapest synthetic) (Cheapest tack).There is a big difference in how much water they hold. The sponges I had before are considerably more heavy when wet and hold more water.This sponge holds less water and has a more unique squish to it, maybe just slightly less flexible due to this. But feels a little more heavy duty. And I'm sure it'll soften up with use though, all sponges are kinda weird at first.I will use these sponges for pottery, which is good that it wont waterlog my pieces as much at the cheap sponge. And will be good for mishima. Read more

Leather cleaning is very intense anduses alot of strong push and pull.One sponge could do a man's leatherjacket, two leather bar stools, a leatherrecliner and it was still going strong.I wish I had looked down and donemy leather shoes. But I tossed it ; eventhough it held its shape, did not crumble.but becuase it contained all the leathercleaning liquid. Great product. Read more

Used one of these sponges this week for cleaning leather chairs. It works very well! The sponge doesn’t absorb the cleaner, so it was perfect for what I was looking for. Thank you! Read more

These are the tack sponges we always use to clean my daughter's way-too-expensive tack. They do the job well without damaging the leather. Deliver was fast, and the price is right. Read more
