Saaaweeeet!!!

I think the pad washer is a great idea, but I don't know how my non Rupes pads would hold up to a pressure washer. It seems like your Rupes pads would hold up ok since the foam is so coarse.

Have you tried using a pressure washer with other kinds of pads ?

Yup. No problem. I wouldn't use a gas pressure washer though.

Nice idea. Couldn't see quite clearly: how did you fasten the grit guard?

Thanks for the response and the information.

I have a gas powered pressure washer so I don't have a lot of use for a electric one. But after seeing how easy it was to clean your pads with your setup I am going to see if I can find a good high pressure nozzle or something similar that just goes on the end of a regular hose.


Anything to improve and speed up pad cleaning is at the very least worth a few bucks and some time.
