I think thats what they call them. A couple of months ago I bought one to clean some FILTHY wheels on a T bucket I bought to resell. It cleaned them pretty well but it got filthy in the process. The whole bottom half of the ball went from red to black. I Then put it away and forgot about it till today. Been sitting for a couple of months. Any ideas how to clean it? Thanks.
 
I just soaked mine in a detergent (like Dawn) plus some agitation to get it damp and then rinsed in clear water. It seems fine.
 
I will soak it in some soapy h2o and see if that does the trick. Need to clean it up to use on the Rams 20s:cheers:
 
I have it in oad cleaner now. Will overnight be okay? First time I have ever used pad cleaner.

What kind do you have?

Sounds like you don't have anything to lose, since it is so dirty and has sat so long.
I have never cleaned a powerball, so bear in mind I can't say for certain.
 
The pad cleaner I have is a powder that you mix with h20 from AG, not sure of the brand. It was $4.99.

Over night is fine, just unscrew the shaft so that the foam is flat and let air dry. If the pad cleaner doesn't work, use dawn.
 
Try the DP pad conditioner ... if all else fails they now sell 2 pack replacement heads.
