For those with a Porter Cable
If you have a PC you obviously have polishing and cutting pads. These need to be cleaned. I have been using a product by Pinnacle that does a pretty good job but we are just about out and the stuff is expensive, I think its around 15$ a bottle and it never seems to get the pad all the way clean. Well tonight I tried washing the pad with Dawn Dish Detergent. Know how they say this stuff takes the wax off? Well it will clean your pads beautifully, just like new. Just make sure you rinse and get it all out. I throw it in the dryer after washing. Just a tip.
