Getting the Most out of Your Foam and Wool Pads
There are a lot of different opinions and information on the types of pads used in boat detailing. Whether you prefer foam or wool, or use both, you want to get the most out of your accessories.
We created three simple tips that will allow you to get the best performance and provide the longest life for your foam and wool boat detailing pads.
- Correctly use your pads – Only use one foam or wool pad per detailing product
- Properly store your pads – Store your foam and wool boat detailing pads in a gallon zip bag. Write the name or the product used with the pad on the bag (with a sharpie).
- Care for your pads – wool pads and foam pads can be hand washed, wrung and air dried to ensure that the Velcro® does not delaminate from excessive washing or heat from a drier.
