Discolored polishing pads?

[Sunder92]

Some months ago I was washing my polishing pads and laid them on a table to dry. Someone put them in a bin in the corner and I forgot all about them until today. When I found them all my white pads were light orange.

I'm just curious if I can still use them. Would it hurt the paint?

Thanks.

More than likely it will alright to use on the paint its just the polish stained the pad or if you wash it with a orange pad its just dye transfer

Okay, that gives me a sigh of relief. I really did not want to spend more money on pads, haha.

Just to note... there's something out how white colored foam is made that it is not UV stable and white foam will discolor to dirty orange yellowish color all on it's own if not kept out of light.
