how to clean Sonus DAS pads?

[whackjester]

I recently purchased some Sonus DAS random orbital pads for use with a Porter Cable. I`ve used ScratchX and Sonus polish and NXT on some of the pads. How should I clean them/ what`s the best way to clean them? Thanks in advance!

I just hand wash them in warm water with a little dish soap, making sure I rinse them out well when clean.



Amazing how much comes out of each pad - which reminds me - I have mine to do from last weekend! :shocked



Then just put them out to air dry, no machine drying!

Soak in a bucket with diluted Dawn or APC until done working.



Then wash in sink by hand with warm water and Dawn, APC, or DP Pad Rejuvenator. Work cleaner through pad with fingers. Rinse until runs clear. Air dry on rack.

Sounds good. Thanks for the suggestions. I was a bit apprehensive about cleaning the pads until I heard some suggestions. They aren`t exactly cheap.
