    Foam pads?

    Throw them in the wash with microfiber towels with a mild detergent on a hot/cold cycle and dry them with low heat in the dryer. No fabric softeners!

    If they've been sitting for a while, hit them with a shot of APC or APC+ before washing.

      dangle's suggestion should work with the MF pads as well.

      I would do warm/cold cycle though.

            I blast mine out with a water hose nozzle on "jet" or" stream".

              Soft Buff 2.0 foam pads and DA Microfiber pads can both be thrown in the washer and dryer, no problem. Our earlier foam pads should not be machine washed though, as that can break down the adhesive holding the velcro backer to the pad.

                Just washed mines today.. an ALL purpose cleaner does the trick for me . I rinse them out then throw them in the dryer for 30 minutes along with my other microfiber towels.

                  Dawn Powerclean soap really breaks up the product, it's like magic. I don't machine wash my pads as I use lake country hydrotechs which are fairly fragile and non-machine washable.
