Hex pad cleaning

[CrawlinTBSS]

What do yal do when it comes to the Americana pad ? soak it in a tub of APC for awhile?

 

do you clean after each use or just place back into americana tub for next time?

 

I tried cleaning one last year after use and it seemed troublesome to try and get it nice and clean, so i used another and had been just putting it back in the tub when im done. but for some reason after looking at a car i waxed last night, it seems like the pad has induced small swirl/scratches all over. Pad too clogged? doesnt really seem like theres any bad contaminents on it or anything that would scratch it tho, and havent noticed this on any other car.

The pad should be cleaned after EVERY use and stored outside of the tub. Its only in there originally to keep the wax intact for shipping.

hrmmmm good to know... now. lol.

 

Should i soak my current ones in APC for awhile to try and release some of the waxes?

Yes... you can also try using warm water in the sink with the APC to help soften it up more.

I spray with APC and let it sit there for a while and then rinse. Seems to work... Oh and I NEVER store it in the container.
