Pad Cleaning?

I just ordered the UDM and souns kit. I was wondering how to clean all the pads after use before I put them away?

I usually degrease them, and pressure wash them from a good distance. If it`s a buffing pad, I put it on a polisher spin it up to 3K rpms and use compressed air to dry it out, if it`s an applicator pad, I wring it out in a towel, and let it airdry.

i put mine in the regular washer with only MF towels that I also used with the polishes (no wax or all purpose towels) I do the pre-soak using either Tide FREE or Woolite/Dreft, I use the gentle hand wash cycle and I run the 2nd rinse cycle after also. then i spin dry on my PC and then set the pads on a rack.
