1. A rubbing pad dispensing tool comprising:
(A) an elongated tubular body:
(i) which can be held by the hand of an individual;(ii) which has an interior cavity that has a first end and a second end, that has an inside surface and that includes a space which is capable of containing a stack of a plurality of rubbing pads; and(iii) which has an orifice at each end of the cavity, the structure of which is capable of accommodating the entire stack of pads,
(a) the orifice at the first end of the cavity constituting an opening through which a pad can be removed from the cavity and(b) the orifice at the second end of the cavity capable of being closed with a removable, slidable platform having a to surface for supporting the rubbing pad at the bottom of the stack; (B) said space extending between said orifices and defined by said inside surface of the cavity and sized such that rubbing pads contained therein are frictionally and slidably retained in the space; (C) a removable end cap closure which seals said orifice at the first end of said cavity, but which, upon being removed from the body by an individual, provides access to the cavity, said end cap closure having an exterior surface; (D) a planar pad-carrying area which is positioned on the exterior surface of the end cap closure and which end cap closure has protrusions for detachably attaching thereto a pad; and (E) a slidable platform within the cavity being capable of being pushed against said rubbing pad at the bottom of the stack to move the stack upwardly towards the pad-removable orifice. |
