I recently left some pads sitting with some microfiber towels in a 5 gallon bucket (I leave them this way until I do a large load of microfibers to wash). My problem is I have four hydro tech tangerine pads that have little black spots that look like mold and not stains. I washed these pads already and they are clean but the spots didn't go away. I decided to spot clean the pads with some bleach and this got rid of the spots. I them washed the pads by hand and rinsed them many times so there is none of the bleach residue left over.

My question is will they be okay for use on paint again? They are clean after I dried them overnight and the foam is in normal shape as they previously were. I don't smell any chemicals and they smell clean besides some very very light staining from the bleach.

They should be good to go. I would wash they as your normally would to make sure any chemicals are out of the pads.
 
I have some mold in my foam applicator pads because I forgot about them and stored them in a baggie for months with bfwd all over them. I might just toss them since they are so cheap.
