BUFFING PAD CARE
HOW DO I CLEAN
MY BUFFING PADS?
Serious Pad Cleaner
Great for Cleaning and
Rejuvenating Buffing Pads
30803 - 12 oz. Serious Pad Cleaner
Serious Pad Cleaner is scientifically
formulated powdered cleaner for rejuvenating
buffing pads. Mixed with water this cleaner
dissolves compounds and waxes from wool,
foam and blended buffing pads cleaning
them to be used over and over. Also great for
microfiber and cotton bonnets.
Visit www.shurhold.com/cleanpads for the latest in how-to
videos including the proper cleaning and care of buffing pads.
Nothing is worse than getting ready to start a job with your Polisher and realizing your
pads are all dirty and gunked up from the previous application. It is very important to
always start a waxing or buffing job with a fresh set of pads. This does not mean a new
set, but rather pads that are in clean and good condition.
Dirty pads will work against you in 2 ways. First, if they are already loaded with wax or
compound they will not work efficiently, greatly increasing the time you will need for
buffing. Second, a dirty pad, one that may have been stored poorly or has grime embedded
in it can really damage your finish by grinding that dirt into the surface.
STEP 1
In a plastic container, mix 1 scoop (included) of Serious Pad Cleaner or 1 tbsp. per 1 gallon
(3.78 Liters) of warm water and stir thoroughly. (Mix only what is needed for application
and use within 7 days of mixing or more often with heavy use.)
STEP 2
Soak items to be cleaned for up to 15 minutes. Agitate and brush lightly. Thoroughly rinse
area with clean water. For extremely soiled area, let solution soak in longer.
STEP 3
Wash your pads immediately for easiest cleaning. Serious Pad Cleaner will remove caked
on and saturated compounds and waxes from your pads. Let pads air dry completely prior
to using again. For storing pads in between use, you should use a clear plastic baggie.
SAFETY & HANDLING: While this product is environmentally friendly and bio-degradable, please follow
these warnings. This is a concentrated citrus cleaner and may irritate your skin with prolonged exposure.
Due to its powerful cleaning properties, wear old clothes while using. Always wear protective gloves
and safety glasses. Do not mix with bleach or any other concentrated chemical cleaners. Keep unused
powder in a cool, dry place, out of reach of children and pets.

STEP 2
Apply Pro Polish to the pad in a ring pattern, as
shown in Figure A.
