         2 . The sponge applicator of  claim 1  wherein said attachment portion comprises a hole. 
     
     
         3 . The sponge applicator of  claim 2  wherein the top of the substantially U-shaped indentation is horizontally aligned with said hole. 
     
     
         4 . The sponge applicator of  claim 2  wherein the plurality of ribs extend between the hole and the first end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         5 . The sponge applicator of  claim 4  wherein the bottom of the substantially U-shaped indentation is horizontally aligned with a rib of said plurality of ribs that is closest to the first end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         6 . The sponge applicator of  claim 1  wherein the first end of the attachment portion of the sponge applicator is permanently affixed to the planar sealed end of the flexible tube. 
     
     
         7 . The sponge applicator of  claim 1  wherein the sponge is permanently affixed to the tool holder portion of the sponge applicator. 
     
     
         8 . The sponge applicator of  claim 1  wherein the tool holder portion of the sponge applicator comprises an arm extending upwardly and outwardly from the second end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         9 . The sponge applicator of  claim 1  wherein the tool holder portion of the sponge applicator comprises a curved arm extending upwardly and outwardly from the second end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         10 . The sponge applicator of  claim 1  wherein the attachment portion of the sponge applicator is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the flexible tube. 
     
     
         11 . A sponge applicator system comprising
 a flexible tube, wherein said tube has a planar sealed end; and   a sponge applicator comprising
 an attachment portion, wherein a first end of said attachment portion securely attaches the sponge applicator to the planar sealed end of the flexible tube, wherein said attachment portion has at least one face that comprises a two separate U-shaped indented areas; and 
 a tool holder portion, wherein said tool holder portion is adapted to receive a sponge, wherein a second end of said attachment portion is attached to said tool holder portion. 
   
     
     
         12 . The sponge applicator of  claim 11  wherein said attachment portion comprises a hole. 
     
     
         13 . The sponge applicator of  claim 12  wherein the tops of the substantially U-shaped indentations are horizontally aligned with said hole. 
     
     
         14 . The sponge applicator of  claim 12  wherein a plurality of ribs extend between the hole and the first end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         15 . The sponge applicator of  claim 14  wherein the bottoms of the substantially U-shaped indentations are horizontally aligned with a rib of said plurality of ribs that is closest to the first end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         16 . The sponge applicator of  claim 11  wherein the first end of the attachment portion of the sponge applicator is permanently affixed to the planar sealed end of the flexible tube. 
     
     
         17 . The sponge applicator of  claim 11  wherein the sponge is permanently affixed to the tool holder portion of the sponge applicator. 
     
     
         18 . The sponge applicator of  claim 11  wherein the tool holder portion of the sponge applicator comprises an arm extending upwardly and outwardly from the second end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         19 . The sponge applicator of  claim 11  wherein the tool holder portion of the sponge applicator comprises a curved arm extending upwardly and outwardly from the second end of the attachment portion. 
     
     
         20 . An implement comprising
 an attachment portion, wherein a first end of said attachment portion securely attaches the implement to a planar sealed end of a flexible tube, wherein said attachment portion has at least one face that comprises a two separate U-shaped indented areas; and   a tool holder portion, wherein said tool holder portion is adapted to receive a sponge, wherein a second end of said attachment portion is attached to said tool holder portion.
