I don't know about the foam applicator pads (assuming the same) But with the microfiber applicator pads I just throw them in the wash with my micro's and they are good to go. I think the wax would get hard on there if you didn't wash it after every use IMO.

You should always use a clean applicator pad to apply a finishing wax, so inspect your applicator pads before and during use and replace when needed.
For show car stuff I would use a new, clean applicator pad. For you're own daily driver, if it looks clean use it.
Applicator pads are cheap, I always tell people to stock up on these you have one when you need it. It's real annoying to be ready to apply something by hand only to find out the only wax applicator pad you have is on the garage floor and dirty. Then you drive your car down to the local auto parts story and try to find something that's quality.
Most applicator pads only cost a few bucks at the retail level so it will cost you more in time, wear-n-tear and gas to drive to the store for just that applicator pads.
