Abstract

Presented is a device for cleaning dirt and debris from the top surface and side surface portions of a beverage can from which the contents are to be drunk directly by placing the mouth on the end of the can surrounding the opening therein. Included is a flange portion that overlaps the side of the can so that a towel sandwiched between the cleaning device and the can wipes away contaminants. Also included is a bead that projects into the groove found on most cans within the rim to thereby press a layer of paper toweling or facial tissue into the groove so that upon rotation of the cleaning device on the end of the can, any contaminants are wiped away, thus preventing them from being entrained with and consumed with the beverage. A concave surface on the cleaning device presses paper towel or facial tissue against the top of the can in the area surrounding where the opening will be formed when the beverage can is opened.
