1. A device to squeegee the inner surface of a hollow shape preventing damage or scratches with a non-abrasive material while cleaning comprising;
a longitudinal shaft with a distal end and proximal end,
a first proximal means suitable for human or robot manipulation,
said first proximal means is located on said proximal end of said longitudinal shaft,
a non-removable one-piece squeegee comprising; flexible, shape conforming elements aligned and located on said distal end of said longitudinal shaft, wherein said flexible shape conforming elements have the same equal constant diameter,
said shape conforming flexible elements are made of a non-absorbent material suitable to be rinsed and cleaned and reused multiple times,
at least one said shape conforming flexible element is without perimeter openings,
at least two adjacent said shape conforming flexible elements having perimeter openings,
said perimeter openings in said adjacent shape conforming flexible elements are aligned openings incrementally sized, gradually changing in size from the squeegee distal end to the squeegee proximal end of said squeegee to regulate the collection of contaminates.
