Cleaning yellow megs pads

Blazern00b · 03-04-05, 09:07

Hey all, I have been using my PC now and the pads need to be cleaned. I have DACP on one and 80 on the other. I took some simple green and dumped some into a bucket, enough to cover the bottom and then some, and then added about a gallon and a half or so of hot water and then dropped the pads in. Is it safe to let the soak overnight or should I take them out and rinse them ?

I wash mine with Dawn and hot water. I squeeze all the air out so that they soak up the soapy solution, and let them soak for 10 minutes or more. Then I just scrub them with my hands, squeeze the soapy water out, rinse them a few times, and squeeze out as much water as I can.
If the weather is nice, I go outside and put the pads on the PC to spin dry them on speed 5. Otherwise, I just get them as dry as I can by squeezing them, and let them air dry.

I would have tried dawn but here at my place the g/f cant handle the scent so we use *ack* ivory..... I think that stuff smells compared to dawn, lol.

I just clean mine out with dish soap. 80 and DACP rinse out pretty nicely. NXT, on the other hand....
