drying pads

[ricks98ws7]

How do you guys dry your pads. I cleaned my pads last week Sat and they are still wet. Wanted to try my new polisher that came today but I have wet pads. Rick:help:

Let them air dry in the sun if possible...

After you wash your pads put them back on pc. While on pc at a low speed in your wash bucket, run pc and it will sling most of the water out. Then set them up to air dry.

I wring them out as best I can, then set them on a towel to dry. By the time I check on them the next day, they're dry as can be. Did you wring them out after washing? Sounds like there must have been quite a bit of water left in them if they're still wet.

If you don't want to try spinning them on 1 on your PC, you could get an old towel, fold it in half, put a wet pad on one half, fold over the other half and press down on the pad to blot the water out of the pad. Then air dry it, maybe even in the sun, on edge, so both sides can evaporate.

I keep a few sets of each pad for this reason.

after you wring it out, hold an edge and "sling" it downward....that'll get em mostly dry

The Grit Guard make a great drying rack for the PC pads (after "slinging" off he water of course).

I spun them with my drill and the 4 inch pad adapter. That spun the water out and they dried over night. Thanks for the help. Rick

After washing mine I have a rack I place them on in front of my dehumidifier that is in my basement.

I need mine for tonight so I did as above and then my wife set them out side on a paper towel face down to dry. The paper towel is so nothing on the table gets on them as well as dust settling.
