ABSTRACT:
A tool for removing surface material to be analyzed includes a container having an opening therein defined by a peripheral edge. A flexible band is attached to and extends along the peripheral edge. An adhesive coating is positioned on the band. A ring is positioned in a wall of the container. The ring defines an aperture extending through the container. A cutting tool extends through the ring such that a cutting member of the cutting tool is extendable through the opening. The adhesive on the band may be attached to a wall surface such that the cutting tool may scrap the wall surface. Material freed from the wall surface by the cutting tool is captured in the container.
