<p>A laundering implement (10) is provided for cleaning an external surface of a vehicle. A plurality of spacers (36) are supportable with respect to a path of travel for a vehicle to be cleaned and are arranged in groups of spacers (36) for oscillating or rotating movement about a common axis or rotation or axial shifting oscillation along a common axis. The spacers (36) are of a color different from that of the rest of the fixed structure of the laundering implement (10) so that when the implement is in operation the moving spacers (36) and cloth elements (16) create an attractive and attention-getting visual effect. Each spacer (36) has opposite complimentary faces (42, 44) matable with an opposing face of an adjacent spacer (36). A plurality of cloth elements (16) are interposed between adjacent stacked spacers for movement in concert therewith. The interposed portion of the element (16) is pinched between a projection (22, 22a) extending from one spacer (36) and into engagement with the adjacent spacer (36), and the cloth element (16) and adjacent spacers (36) are compressively sandwiched toward one another.</p> |
