โAnyone who studies Halachot every day is guaranteed that he is destined for the world-to-comeโ (Megilla 28b, Niddah 73a)
Question:
May one clean a spill with a paper towel or napkin if it will get colored as a result of cleaning the spill?
Answer:
It is permitted to wipe a spill or something that will stain with a paper towel or similar disposable material, since any coloring that is done is of minimal benefit because the paper towel will be discarded after it is used. [1]
Similarly, One may place food or drink in a disposable plastic or paper plate or cup on Shabbat even though the plate or cup will become dyed. [2]
Furthermore, One may use diapers that have a strip or picture on them that changes colors or becomes erased when the child urinates. [3]
