I used some LC Hydrotech flat pads yesterday for the first time. I must say, these pads seem to perform EXTREMELY well! However, I am very new to detailing and machine polishing and have only used one other type of pad before - Hex-Logic foam purchased from Chemical Guys - so I really don't have much to compare them to.
The one thing I did discover though is that they are WAY harder to clean than the hex-logic pads. I have a Grit Guard Pad Washer system, and even that didn't seem to get all the residue out of the Hydrotech pads. I realize that they are a different kind of foam composition than the hex-logic, but does anyone have any suggestions on how to efficiently clean Hydrotech pads both on-the-fly and after the job? (More so on-the-fly)
I will probably buy more pads so I can have the option of switching to a fresh pad while working, but would still like to know how to better clean them.
