    Meg's MF DA pad life expectancy

    Does anyone know what the pad life expectancy (with proper care) is for the MF correction system?

    They are suppose to last quite some time. I have one that I've used on 5 cars, and when cleaned it still looks brand new. I think it may have been Rasky who said they can last well over 25 uses, but I could be wrong on that.

    What are you using to clean them? I've read compressed air and a brush.

    Should be longer than ten or so cars. However kevin brown will point out that megs did have a dud batch that rips the pad from the backing. But megs being the good as it is will replace your pad for free, assuming you didn't use improper technique.

    In the video with Mike and jason showing off the system they recommend you clean it frequently with best being compressed air, if you don't have that than a nylon pad brush. Some members here and other forums have gotten even better results with a bug sponge.

    I use compressed air and a bug sponge to clean on the fly. the bug sponge will get out even the worst gunk, and the air will fluff it back up. IF you don't have access to air, the bug sponge works great.

    Yeah I noticed them using an air compressor to clean them. I never knew about the bug spongue.

    Awesome! I didn't know about the bug sponge...does it clean regular pads too?

    I think it would be a little too much for regular foam pads. But I can't say that I have tried it to be sure.
