What it’s for

With the dispenser and the alcohol bottle, this is the third part of the cheap-wipes setup. A bag of them costs very little.

What to check in the listing

Plain pressed cotton, not the quilted 'exfoliating' kind, which sheds. These are for surfaces and skin; for the rubber stopper a sealed alcohol pad is still cleaner, because it was sterile when it was sealed.
