did you spin em out on your PC after rinsing out the pads..This will rid the pad of the majority of water then you can lay them out flat until they dry..

ome more thing..after you rinse the pad place it between a towel to rid the pad of as much water as possible then place the pad on your PC to spin it dry..
 
No i didnt spin them i dont have my pc here but i will do that when i get home thanks!

place the pad in the center of a towel to squeeze the excess water out..if you don't get them to dry you risk the chance of mold forming on your pads..

First off how long has it been, since you cleaned them. ( a few hours/ a day) etc.
And do you squeeze them out, and do you place them flat to dry.
 
either spin them on a pc or rotary..or do the grab an edge and fling the water out of them technique...after that make sure you lay them pad side down on a wire rack surface so air can get to the pad and let them dry properly...
 
I toss mine in the dryer and air dry them with either no heat or the lowest setting. No problems thus far.
 
Ive been so weary about the dryer option, but if you haven't seen any repercussions, looks like I'm going to do that after a PC spin dry.

Just air dry them in the dryer if you have that option. If you're leary, just spin them on the PC on 6 for about 5-10 seconds----they'll be 90% dry! Then lay them face down on a towel.
 
I lay mine on a towel on the windshield of my convertible that stays in the garage. It might be a figment of my imagination, but they seem to dry a little better that way rather than just laying flat.
 
I put mine on the pc first then put them on a shelf that allows air to dry from both the top and bottom.
 
spinning the pads would be an option if he had his PC ;) why he has his pads without his PC dunno..placing the pads in the dryer on low heat checking after 10mnts so the pads don't get to hot is a good option..
 
I ruined a couple of my pads by having them too enclosed. They got mold or mildew. The foam started sluffing off the pad. Since then I do whatever it takes to dry them quickly, spin, dryer, sun/air.
