A cleaning tool for use in abrading a surface for cleaning the surface includes a resiliently deformable backing member insert, and a chain mail abrader enclosure comprising a chain mail body having a plurality of interlinked rings. The chain mail abrader enclosure is configured to allow for insertion and removal of the resiliently deformable backing member insert. The resiliently deformable backing member is disposable within the chain mail abrader enclosure such that the backing member is positioned against the chain mail body to allow the chain mail body to conform to contours of the surface during abrading.

A layered scrub having an aspect ratio of between 0.75 and 1.25 is presented, comprising: a) a scrubber layer; b) a sponge layer; optionally c) a rigid boundary layer, which optionally is directly bound to layer c) and/or layer b); and optionally d) a dense sponge layer. In some such embodiments, layers d) and b) are unitary. In some embodiments, the layered scrub has a height of between 5.0 centimeters and 11.0 centimeters and may be generally cubic. In some embodiments, the scrubber layer comprises a non-reticulated hydrophobic polyurethane foam, the sponge layer and/or the dense sponge layer comprises a hydrophilic polyurethane foam, and the rigid boundary layer comprises polyurethane. In some embodiments, dense sponge layer d) bears printed designs or information.

A transformable cylindrical sponge 2 for washing dishes and cleaning surfaces 18. Multiple continuous insert slits 4&6 are cut from top end to bottom end for inserting various utensils 14 to clean. Abrasive scouring pad material 8 is adhered to both ends to enable effective cleaning. The sponge 2 can be flipped partially or completely inside-out for alternate cleaning of curved and non-curved surfaces 16 also enabling thorough cleaning and sanitization of the sponge 2. A utilization method is also included.
