Do you use the same high quality MF you use on paint to clean the pads?

Or will just any cheap ones will do?

Some might say "NO Don't use the cheap ones because the fibers will go on the pad and then marr the paint!"

I just detailed a NSX using the KBM and cleaning the pad on the go with a costco MF, brought the car into the sunlight and no Marring evident.

The action required is to absorb the material on the pad, so I think either will work; I use terrycloth towels, but I think MF will do just as well.

The clean on the go towel method does work pretty good. Except I use a microfiber. Either way, like seth said when the pad is saturated with used liquid, having fresh polish will work like how it's supposed to.

I see.

I've always used a stiff brush to clean my pads with, as I find it removes the most residue.

My theory is that as the job advances the pad becomes saturated with more non-abrasive liquid and the next application of product won't have the same "strength." Hence, using the towel to soak up the excess as well as get the residue off the pad surface.

Same way you clean the pad after 2-3 sections: buffer against the towel in the hand.

You mean to hold the towel, by hand, against the buffer, or press the buffer against the towel, while it's against the panel?

I've used it with all different amounts until I reread this thread way-back-when that a little goes a long way.

Starting with a fresh pad, two spray shots of QD, run the pad in a terrycloth towel and apply the product to the pad.

Pressed for time, I've applied it directly to the paint surface. This is all using the G110. Still no problem with removal, I usually only let it dry for the required 15 minutes or so.

Maybe I'm not priming my pad correctly, or something. I found a thread that discuses the Kevin Brown method of priming, so I will try that and see if it helps.

I'm in the Washington, DC suburbs, very humid in the summer (although not as bad as say, Tampa FL).
