How efficient do you want the cleaning tool to be?
Very efficient Very efficient

Do you want it to be more accurate and why? Yes, so it doesn’t make any mess no, so it could spread and be faster to clean

Do you want it to be more accurate and why?
Yes, so it doesn’t make any mess no, so it could spread and be faster to clean

Would people use it if it was a water gun? yes yes

Would it be better if it was soap or water or both and why?
Both, because it would be useful in different situations. Both, because soap would be used for cleaning, and water would be used to wash the soap.

What other uses do you want the tool to have? To clean windows To clean multiple objects
