Pads And Zip lock Bags
Can the foam pads be stored in a zip lock bag? What I mean is if I had to leave to go eat supper, and don't have time to clean it out, can it be keep from drying out till I get back, would this be ok?

Sure not the best practice but it works. I'd recommend cleaning the pad on the fly with a towel or brush then reprime and continue. You can also spray some detail spray on the pad to keep it moist before leaving. Obviously the plastic bag long term storage is for fully cleaned and dry pads.

I do that all the time...'cept I use a BIG baggie and shove the whole thing (machine, pad etc) in it. Eat, have a beer, and resume.
Just don't leave a wet pad in a closed bag for any long period of time...can you say instant mold?

i punch 2 holes on each bottom corner of the ziploc bags just to let air circulate

if the pads are moist, wet or even damp, you shouldn't put them in a sealed ziploc bag as they will most likely grow mold over time. if they are completely dry then it should be fine...

I've switched to using Microfiber cleaner on my pads, works great! Spray on rinse off. Except on the sealant pads, they just get labeled and placed in a ziplock bag to use for the same sealant next time.

Dawn Power Dissolver -- spray bottle at Walmart -- $2.83 Read allot of pro detailers who use it exclusively for pad cleaning--rinses out well with no residue left behind.
