Opinions vary. *I* don`t do it but others do.

Some products work better when lubricated. Others don`t. I personally don`t ever lubricate my pads.

Depends on the product for me. If I`m using something very thin like AIO, I`ll spray a tiny bit of non-silicone qd on the pad to slow the absorption of the product. With thicker products, I don`t use anything. You may find that water doesn`t mix well with some products--it causes some polishes to flash too quickly.
