    I just use some Spray Nine All Purpose Cleaner, let it sit for a minute, and hose it down. Then squeeze out excess water and let air dry.

    I throw mine in the washer with mild detergent and let her rip! Haven`t lost even one in five years. Same with the Cyclo pads.

    Make that x2. Works really well to remove all polishes, glazes, and/or waxes.

    I soak it in a heavy solution of Woolite+water. I pretreat with Simple Green. After a few hours, I massage the dirty stuff out. Seems to work fairly well.

    I use dawn power dissolver, it works better than any "pad cleaner" ive tried.



    After a while, when they get old, I use the DP pad rejuvenator.

    I use the Wolfgang stuff, mix the stuff with warm water and just let it sit in there. Works great.

    I use System-3000 from Autogeek, I can use a white pad on a rotary with a menzerna 106

    FF after I am done; wash it in the bucket with DP Pad rejuvenator and dry it in seconds

    all inside the bucket and then place the nicely damped white pad on PC with a glaze

    before LSP. What ever color that product is in my case was grey “106†its done in a

    minute and the pad is ready. One of the best products I have bought to date.
