Water flow through the main body and a cover of a cleaner is regulated by a flow guide having an L-shaped flow groove which permits water flow through the cleaner to be selectively terminated or directed through either a straight outlet for direct contact with an object to be cleaned or through a spray outlet of the main body for flow down and around an invertible cleaning block through an annular space formed in the cover.
A fluid material is applied to a surface by an applicator implement shown in the form of a brush having a stem and an applicator in the form of bristles supplied with the fluid material through an array of relatively small diameter lumens extending along the stem of the brush and delivering the fluid material to the bristles in a corresponding array of small streams of fluid material directed along the bristles to lay down the fluid material in an essentially even distribution of regulated amounts of fluid material along the bristles.
