A surface scraper tool for removing coating from a smooth flat surface with a blade holder having a bottom surface defining a surface plane and a lateral guide face defining a guide plane and with a blade protruding from the front of the blade holder forming a predefined scraping angle with the surface plane and a sharp edge extending across the whole width of the blade holder in the surface pane and not extending beyond the guide plane.

A cleaning device for removing marks from a surface includes a body of melamine foam sponge having a front side and a rear side opposed to the front side, and a holding layer secured to the rear side of the body of melamine foam sponge to prevent relative movement therebetween. The holding layer is preferably a cloth and more preferably natural or synthetic chamois which can be used to wipe and/or buff the surface after rubbing the body of melamine foam sponge on the surface to remove at least one surface mark. The body of melamine foam sponge can be pre-moistened with a liquid such as a disinfecting solution.

An ice scraper blade and/or brush mounted to a handle which has an anatomically designed grip. Attached to the handle is a cover to protect the user's hand from snow, ice, water, and cold. The cover has a sleeve with a first side made of waterproof fabric and a second side which is insulated with a suitable thermo-insulating fabric. In a first position of the cover, the first side of the sleeve is exposed to the outside for protecting the user's hand against the elements. In a second position of the cover, the sleeve is reversed so that the first side of the sleeve is on the inside, for enclosing ice, water and snow that may be adhered to the ice scraper blade and/or brush. The cover is also provided with a fastening arrangement that is placed at the second end of the sleeve, which prevents entering of snow and ice into the cover in the first position, and which contains the ice, water and snow inside the cover in the second position.

Scrapers for removing adhered material from surfaces employ continuous and discontinuous material removal edges to remove different types of material. Continuous and sometimes discontinuous material removal edges are constructed and arranged to conform to the curvature of a surface from which material is to be removed, when a user forces the scraper against the surface. Some scrapers include multiple material removal edges designed to simultaneously contact the surface. The use of multiple points of contact combined with locations of handles provide stable designs that reduce hand and wrist strain.

A pole section for temporary assembly with similar pole sections into an elongate pole assembly whereby a user can perform work on a remote worksite elevated by up to 20 m above the user. Each pole section includes a male end and a female end, having a complementary taper to slide into or around the other of a male or female end and form a fluid tight joint with a stiffness similar to or greater than the overall stiffness of the pole. The ends of each pole section include one of first and second complementary coupling parts. The coupling parts cooperate to prevent the pole sections moving relatively towards each other under the weight of overlying pole sections in use to prevent the pole sections jamming A resiliently deformable locking structure is provided in a coupling part by a ring spring.
