Washing waxing pads with towels ?

I polish and wax by hand using either terry or foam pads. I take the stuff off with terry towels. Is it ok to wash the towels with the waxing pads or will this cause a problem ?

i.e.. will stuff from the pads get on my towels or does the washer pretty much clean everything ?
 
I find the yellow foam pads float in the washing machine and therefore don't get much washing "action" accomplished on them. I soak them in something else first (Snappy Pad Cleaner or dish detergent), squeeze them out and redunk a few times until they seem free of wax/etc., rinse & squeeze, then wash them with the towels.
 
I put all mine in the wash with my cloth's & they come out all ok.



Saying that, I do put about 20 pads & a similar amount of cloth's

I do the same with my foam pads.
