I've used the same LC pads for five years on countless details and they still stick to the plate. Some are a little ragged and devoted to other than pristine paint work but they still stay on the plate. You must have received a bad one.

10 uses? I doubt it, Ive used mine for more than 10 and they look brand new.

Make sure theres no lint on the velcro and you dont dry them with other towels.
