Big Lots: Pad Storage Solution

**orngez** · 06-13-2007, 11:43 PM

Been eyeballing these lately at Big Lots...i guessed right that they would hold my pads perfectly...8.5 x 11 each drawer ( the face is curved so it gives that extra inch needed to clear the 12inches worth of pad), three drawers per unit.....perfect for keeping my pads organized...edge2k 6 inch wave, flat, and 4inch pad as well...

thought i would share as i see a lot of bulk containers holding multiple pads...

best part is they were like 5 bucks a drawer...the bigger ones are great for storing mf towels and applicators as well....and those were only like 7 bucks....

That looks like a good solution. I usally put my pads in zip lock bags. You really have to make sure they are completely dry before you do or you will end up with mildewed pads.

I almost bought this at Wal-mart the other day. i think i will just bite the bullet and go buy them! They’re not 5 & 7$ though ;-(

Hey that looks familiar!!!

I have one big one in my truck's extended cab. Works awesome and is light weight.

Very nice, I purchased one but one is not enough. Man you guys in the US get stuff so cheap, we got to pay about $25 (or so) Canadian $

Oh well...I like the larger ones.

Thanks for sharing.

i think thats why everyone hates us

.....but being a detailer outside the US is what i wish i could be.....no VOC worries, cool 3m backing plates (which i want one REALLY bad) and YELLOW CLAY....

Similar to what I have, don't even remember where I got mine from. Plastic container that fits my Edge pads perfectly.

Well true about the VOC, I shouldn't complaing I have lots of stuff that I wouldn't be able to get my hands on...but it all comes at a price my friend...something I learned quickly is that anything can be done it's just a mater of how much you'r willing to pay for it.
