Abstract:

A manual scuff mark removal tool for removing random scuff marks from floor surfaces has an angulated head with a pad support block which has a bottom surface and a front edge surface and defines toe and heel corners and edges. A handle projection is defined by the head and is oriented in obtuse angular relation with the pad support block and defines a handle receptacle receiving a handle with a hand grip. A weight is preferably encapsulated within the head for continuously applying a weight induced downward force to a floor during scuff mark removal. A replaceable pad is secured to and covers the bottom surface, front edge surface and the toe and heel corners of the pad support block and by selectively positioning the head of the tool, selected portions of the pad engages the floor surface being cleaned.
