Detailing D'oh! moment...

[DaGonz]

So... I get home from the firehouse after working a 24 hour tour of duty.. wifey was sleeping in, so I spent the morning organizing my detailing supplies, refilling bottles odf various solutions, vacuumed the interior of the Edge, and cleaned a whole bunch of polisher pads. I put them on a big flat piece of cardboard to dry in the sun... ran a few errands, stopped at my son's firehouse to chat, stopped and got dinner.. forgetting about the pads.. the lawn sprinklers came on at 6:00 PM, now they are soaked again... d'oh!

And with sprinkler water, too.... I'd rinse them out to get the hard water/minerals out of them.

I rewashed them, put them in the garage to dry... I was detailng a dark blue 2006 VW Passat Monday morning. The pads were still a bit damp, I put them in the dryer on air fluff for a while and that took care of the dampness.

Awesome, glad to hear it all worked out

Interesting, I've always been hesitant to put pads in the dryer fearing they would deform or something. I think I'll try that
