OCDetails Review: Universal Pad Washer

"I saw the Pad Washer in use at the Autogeek booth at the SEMA [2008] show this year. It seemed like anybody demonstrating polishing products had one at their booth. Autogeek had one at their booth too and I got to hear the inventors of the product talk about it a lot. So I decided it was worth giving it a shot. Holy cow!! Why didn't I get one of these sooner??? This is an absolutely awesome device that is a must have for anyone who uses a machine to polish their vehicles."

"I would say that is just proof that it works! Every one of those pads had been sprayed out, so this is also proof that spraying a pad cleaner and hosing them off isn't enough to get them clean."

"If you value your pads and want them clean then this is a must have product! Even if you don't care that much about your pads, if you hate polishing with wet pads and the resulting mess that they cause, then you still need to get one of these. It is a new must have recomendation for OCDetails.com for sure!"

Denzil's Review: Grit Guard Universal Pad Washer

"What can I say, it's an awesome tool. It sure beats the hell out of washing them by hand and at a fraction of the time (at least with me anyways)! You can clean any type/size of pads with just about any type of machine. What's also particularly nice about this product is that it includes the Gamma Seal Lid for those mobile details or what have you, which can be leak proof if it's screwed tight enough to the top of the bucket. Oh, and you could always pull all the internals but the Grit Guard Insert and use it as your rinse bucket. "

Comments from Autopia.org's Forum

"Prior to using the washer, I tried to keep a constant rotation of pads (especially wool) when compounding. That all changed with the washer. I now have 2 pads: the 1 that's being used and 1 that I just washed with the pad washer. I clean wool pads now after every panel and it makes a difference in outcome on the car. It only takes approx. 1 minute to wash and spin dry a wool pad (plus I blow compressed air afterwards to totally dry out the pads)."

"Thoughts, from a newbie.... I saw this item @ the Detail Fest and was hooked. The first time I attempted "detailing" I found that I was using too much product, and ultimately too many pads in the process, (ruining some pads). With the pad washer I've cut down to basically one pad per color (i.e. 1 white pad and 1 orange pad) to work an entire car.

After every panel or more, you can run the pad through the washer, and off you go. For me, it's actually made using my UDM much more enjoyable with BETTER results. It's expensive, but WORKS!"
