    3D Tunze strong plus polishing pad adopter glass cleaner.

    I 3D printed a polishing pad adopter for my Tunze strong plus glass cleaner. It uses small pre cut micro mesh pads. It is not perfect and needs a bit of improvement. However it works very well for removing coralline algae and polishing scratches inside my acrylic tank.
