Ryan | did you spin em out on your PC after rinsing out the pads..This will rid the pad of the majority of water then you can lay them out flat until they dry..
ome more thing..after you rinse the pad place it between a towel to rid the pad of as much water as possible then place the pad on your PC to spin it dry..

Ryan | First off how long has it been, since you cleaned them. ( a few hours/ a day) etc.
And do you squeeze them out, and do you place them flat to dry.

| | | either spin them on a pc or rotary..or do the grab an edge and fling the water out of them technique...after that make sure you lay them pad side down on a wire rack surface so air can get to the pad and let them dry properly... |

| | | I toss mine in the dryer and air dry them with either no heat or the lowest setting. No problems thus far. |

| | | Ive been so weary about the dryer option, but if you haven't seen any repercussions, looks like I'm going to do that after a PC spin dry.

If you're leary, just spin them on the PC on 6 for about 5-10 seconds----they'll be 90% dry! Then lay them face down on a towel. |

| | | I lay mine on a towel on the windshield of my convertible that stays in the garage. It might be a figment of my imagination, but they seem to dry a little better that way rather than just laying flat.
