Pad Cleaning

About

Machine polishing pads work hard, and they last far longer when you clean them properly. This collection brings together everything you need to wash, decontaminate and maintain your foam and microfibre polishing pads, so every pass cuts as consistently as the first. Caked-on compound and spent product clog a pad's cells, reduce cut and can cause hazing or marring on your next panel. Clearing pads on the fly during a job and washing them thoroughly afterwards keeps them performing and protects your paintwork. How to choose Pad washer systems: bucket-based systems that rinse and spin pads clean between sections, ideal when you are working through several pads in one session. Pad cleaning brushes & claw tools: clear spent compound from the pad face mid-polish to restore bite without stopping to wash. Pad detergents & washes: dedicated cleaners for deep-washing foam and microfibre pads by hand or in the machine, lifting out oils and compound residue. New to pad care? A pad cleaning brush is the essential addition to any polishing kit, while a pad washer system soon pays for itself if you detail regularly.
