Hi, I have Wolfgangs Pad Werks Polishing Pad Cleaner which works very well by hand. Now that I have a pad washer, I'm looking for an alternative to all the expensive pad washer cleaning solution mixes. I have quite a bit of the Wolfgang pad cleaner, therefore I plan on spraying it on the pad prior to using the washer. In addition to, what's your suggestions for a cleaner/solution to mix in my water? What are you using with great results.....? Thanks, Ray
 
Chemical Guys Fast Pad Cleaner at the recommended 1oz per 16oz dilution rate with great results. Some people say APC's work but I've never tried it. I've also seen Dawn Power Dissolver recommended a couple times here on AGO.
 
Snappy pad cleaner! 3 packs for $5... Each pack devolves into 3-4 gallons of water. I just fill my rinse bucket with warm water, mix in the snappy (citrus cleanser) and let's the pads soak for a few.... Then put gloves on and rub/squish the pads around for 2-3 min each.
They come out looking brand new each and every time.
 
Thanks for the replies........ Great choices. Keep chiming in. Thanks again, Ray :xyxthumbs:
 
Love me some Snappy Clean!

Put it in a dedicated bucket and you can use it over and over. Skim off the top, then pour off the good stuff. You'll have sediment on the bottom that you can dump. It'll last more than a month easy.

Do make sure to use gloves though! ;)
 
Pressure washer. Foam, MF. All sizes. Comes out cleaner than when I wash them and only take about 10 seconds a piece. Bonus : no cleaners at all!
 
I'm with master detailer. I use purple power diluted with hot water. Works great!
 
Wow!! Thanks for all the replies...... I ordered some Detailer’s Pro Series Polishing Pad Rejuvenator to try. I'm also going to try the Purple Cleaner. You folks are awesome, thanks again. Ray :dblthumb2:
