Meguiar's does not recommend washing any of the G100 foam buffing pads either by hand or by machine.

Has anyone washed the foam pads like this: http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums...ead.php?t=9761

 

I have used that method, but have had more success using Murphy's Oil Soap and my hands, at the sink .. after I am done, and have rinsed thoroughly, I blot dry with a couple of paper towels, then attach the pad to my rotary, hold it down in a 5 gallon bucket, and turn it on at 1000 RPm for a few seconds. that slings the rest fo the water out of it, then I allow them to air dry inside the house, before I bag them back up prior to using them again

 

Quarter-sized 'blop' of Murphy's Oil Soap. Like Gip mentioned, make certain tha they're dry before putting them into a ziploc for storage. It's really impressive what can grow on a wet buffing pad in a closed ziploc. LOL!
