Osok Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Spun on PC then put next to dehumidifier for me. For some reason the White pad takes the longest to dry...at least for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1anonly Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 After washing my pads I wring them (basically fold them in half and squeeze) then do a PC spin. When I place them on the rack, I put them face side down. If you go back side down the water will get sucked through the whole and take longer to dry.

EdH63 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 In my experience you can, however, you run the risk of shrinking or distorting the pad with a heat application. I would just spin wipe it damp on the buffer while wiping it with a cloth. Let it air dry. Have some back-ups so you can move to another pad and not wait.

Chris@Adams Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I don't think I would.Spin dry them on low speed on your pc:pc: down in wash bucket then set out to air dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsford Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I wouldn't chance it. I'd let it sit on top of a grit guard or something similar and set it in front of a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 In some older posts some have mentioned putting them on a shoe shelf in the dryer. I don't have one of those in my dryer, so I just spin them to remove the extra water and put them on a rack in the garage to dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02Xtreme07ss Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 In some older posts some have mentioned putting them on a shoe shelf in the dryer. I don't have one of those in my dryer, so I just spin them to remove the extra water and put them on a rack in the garage to dry. I've done the shoe shelf in our dryer and on air only. Spin dry using the buffer first to get out the excess and then the dryer will do the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1anonly Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Hey guys, if you go to my write up of my 2006 Explorer I give a tip on how I dry my buffing pads. I put them on a drying rack face down. I place the rack next to a dehumidifier and that sucks the moisture out of the pad. 24 hours later you got a dry pad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
