Context: Have you swiped the
surface on top of tall cabinets... Using the two-glove
color swipe helps you to see particles you may otherwise miss.
I have translated the first sentence as: Você já passou a mão sobre armários altos....
But for the second sentence, I can't find an equivalent noun. The context is cleaning room - medical facilities - dust particles, etc.
