An automatic wall adhesion and cleaning system includes a cleaning mechanism for cleaning the outer wall of a building, and a vacuum-based wall adhesion mechanism adherable to the outer wall of the building by a vacuum suction force and adapted for carrying and moving the cleaning mechanism on the outer wall of the building. Thus, the automatic wall adhesion and cleaning system can save labor cost and eliminate the risk of human life due to rupture of the ropes of a hanging cage.

A motor-powered windshield scourer for any type of a motor-powered vehicle and or motor craft. The motorized windshield scourer may have a motor propelled appendages or a singular appendage that have replaceable scouring attachments joined to the appendages. The motor that propels the appendages can be positioned anywhere on or in the motor vehicle/craft, whether under the hood, in the cabin or elsewhere. The motor driven appendages with joined scouring attachments may be mounted on the windshield of the vehicle directly opposite of the windshield wiper blades. When turned on, the motor may move the appendages with joined attachments in a side to side and/or up and down motion across the windshield. The appendages may include an unpliable metal such as: steel, titanium, tungsten, or inconel, and the scouring attachments may include nylon scouring pads or a vinyl coated mesh attached to and covering rubber or foam.
