I decided to clean up my Cyclo after using it yesterday. I have to say once again, what a pleasure it was to use this machine.

I used Mother's Power Metal by hand two time and then sealed it with DP's Wheel Glaze.

Here are some shots of my oldest EDGE2K Cyclo pads. They are 7 months old now and have seen 75+ vehicles. They have held polishes like Meguiar's #83 and #80.....Menzerna's Power Gloss, IP, and 106ff.......and one steppers like PwS and 360. I am truly amazed on how well they have held up to be washed in the washing machine every time. I contribute a lot of this to the quality of the machine. Another note......these are the original adapters I started with.

The Cyclo cleaned right up. The pads look good for 7 mos. What do you use for cleaning them in the washing machine?

Never seen a Cyclo detailed. Interesting...but looks good, bro.

I soak them in Purple Power 4:1 and throw them in on the gentle cycle with Arm and Hammer's detergent. It's all I also use on my micro fibers. It's cheap and works the best of any detergent I've used.
