Cleaning pads - inside and out
« on: January 17, 2016, 10:46:00 PM »
Alright chaps, after a little help on cleaning pads - on the inside. I've got some Purist 808s from a few years ago and they've got a few sweat marks inside (slight browning, nothing too disgusting!)
Any way to whiten them out a little before I sell them?

Are they cloth material on the inside, maybe rubbing in some Vanish stain remover or get some spray on stain remover. I've never done this before but that's what I'd do first.

I have though cleaned the outside PU facing and I personally use Armour All Leather Cleaning wipes to get the white PU looking as good as new.

To clean the inside of the pads, I usually dilute some bleach in water and wipe, provided that they're white. If coloured, I usually use some laundry detergent instead of the bleach.

Treat it like a couch. 3 cups Warm water, 3 drops of washing detergent. Dip you fingers in the liquid. Rub it on, let it sud up. Get paper towels and blot it dry.
