Well, I don't know if gumming up is the right word, but when I'm polishing and/or correcting, the white pad is my "go-to" pad. But during the work, the outer 1-2" radius of the pad gets dried up and crusty, powdery like. It's like all the polish/wax is getting pulled into the center of the pad; this area stays pretty saturated and workable. I try to apply my product to that outside portion but it still gets that way.
It hasn't really created a problem or anything and I just swap the pad out when it gets to a certain point; just curious if I'm doing something wrong or if there's a different technique I can try to eliminate this occurrence. It certainly doesn't have an impact on my work though, so not a total issue. I usually notice it because when that outside portion starts drying out, it'll start slinging dust.
