Does anyone remember the old mops that had a clamp on the end for attaching your own towel? Does anyone know the name of them or (even better) where I can get one? I'm sick of replacing destroyed mops that don't really work anyway. Help?

"String or spaghetti" mop as I recall.Check you phone book under "janitorial" supplies.
I HATE the new mops, they do not last...look in Amazon.
I know what kind of mop you are looking for. I found this website which might be able to suit your needs.

Also try a family owned hardware store, they might sell the old vintage style mops and if not, they might be able to order you one.
This is a link to E-How and tells how to make a mop by using towels, and the towel strips can be washed in the washing machine. Hope this helps you.

One more article from eHow on making your own mop from towels.

Here's a bit of the article in case you can't get to it:
The old Fuller Brush mops could be used that way, although they sold a knitted refill.
They're called spring clamp mop handles. You can fine some here:

Check out Daiso. It's a buck fifty and it's just a plastic mop that holds a towel.
