PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Duster or Polishing Cloth.
I, DUGALD SCOTT of 12 York Street, Manchester, in the County of Lancashire,
Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to dusters or polishing cloths made of fast weft cut pile
cotton fabric of a novel character and economical to produce viz. :-
These dusters or polishing cloths are made from a fast weft cut pile cotton
fabric woven with a double thread in the shuttle (the two threads being either
both on
one cop or pirn or on two separate cops or pirns in one shuttle as
desired) so that the material is thus made with double picks instead of single
picks as heretofore-this fabric being as good in appearance and just as serviceable
and effective in use as single pick material while same has the advantage of the
aforesaid great economy in production.
This double pick fabric after it comes from the looms has the pile thereof cut.
in the usual or other suitable manner and the fabric is washed scoured cropped
singed and brushed as is well understood and same is then printed on if desired
and cut up into suitable sizes for dusters or polishing cloths.
"
If desired these double pick dusters or polishing cloths may have the back
raised or "flaneletted '
or have a cut pile surface on both sides.
In the latter case the fabric being woven for this purpose.
