Cleaning MM

[Wheaties]

What is the best way to clean MM? Just soap & water?

soap and water in the sink, or put them in a tied-off nylon stocking and send them through the clothes washing machine.

When I strip down to grab a shower after "shop time" I put my MM pads in my socks and let 'em run though the washing machine.

I put 4 in each sock, then tie a knot in each sock to keep the pads inside.

Next morning, pull them out and put them on a towel to dry.

That's interesting. I have been using the same mm pads for a couple years and never once washed them. I do not dry sand with them though, I just wet sand with them, which as far as I know is the true purpose of them. I heard initially that mm pads were developed by the airline industry, to remove scratches in airplane windows. Just what I heard...don't know if it's true.

You can go here for the story on MM. This is the company that makes MM. their prices are really good and they sell the best plastic polish. It is used in military applications to take scratches out of jet fighter windshields>
