The conceived invention provides both a film applicator and a method for placing a continuous film sleeve around a hose, or a grouping of a plurality of hoses. The sleeve thickness is approximately mil to 20 mils thick, which is suitable for cleanliness protection and reducing the possibility of ripping when the hoses are dragged across a floor. The embodied invention includes a plastic sleeve payout tube, that surrounds and encompasses the hose/hoses. The hoses are routed through the sleeve payout tube when they are hauled into a building to be cleaned. The payout tube stores a compacted length of an enclosing plastic sleeve, and the sleeve pays off as the hoses are dragged into the facility to be cleaned. The initial attachment of the plastic sleeve and hoses is by use of an adhesive tape or an outer clamping strap.

A method for continuously producing a cleaning member obtained from a multilayer web that includes at least a fiber bundle with hollow fibers, and non-woven fabric strips includes at least: a step for preparing a guide member provided with a pair of width-adjusting member, and having a predetermined interval; a step for conveying a fiber bundle strip, such as the fiber bundle with hollow fibers, between the pair of width-adjusting members of the guide member, and adjusting the width of the fiber bundle strip so as to match the aforementioned interval; a step for forming the multilayer web by overlaying the strip-like fiber bundle, the width of which has been adjusted, on the non-woven fabric strips; and a step for joining the components of the multilayer web.
