The key is 2 things,
1: Don't overload the washer and if you have the option for a second rinse cycle - use it.
2: Once in a while you may lose a pad. By this I mean the velcro backing will come off. Either glue it back on with some GOOP Glue or write it off and take comfort in all the TIME you've saved cleaning pads any other way.
One more thing I do but this works for me due to the VOLUME of pads we go through during our classes or even car detailing projects and that is to,
Wash like pads with like pads
By this I mean, wash compound pads together. Wash polish pads together.
And DEFINITELY ONLY WASH pads used with AIOs or cleaner/waxes together.
Why?
Because by their very nature, waxes and sealants are NOT water soluble. They are MUCH harder to get clean no matter how you wash them. Compounds and Polishes on the other had ARE water soluble, they will clean easy.
If you wash your wax pads with your compound and polish pads you'll get the wax/sealant into ALL your pads.
So separate by product and then wash. And for your AIO pads - wash twice. Makes a huge difference.
