Hello together, inspired by the many experiences in the vehicle care forum, I have recently also decided not to drive my car through the car wash, but also to care for my car by hand and with a lot of love. I have enough equipment – thanks to FAQ, various forum and blog posts – now, have already started with the hand wash, but now comes my “problem”…. I used the nice weather on weekends and my car really thoroughly cleaned, incl. change on summer tyres and everything drum and drum. Now I polished the car today and waxed, which was nothing new in itself – only for the first time I took order sponges, polishing sponges and microfaster cloths instead of old rags and polishing floss. After I was finished, the question arose: What now – how do I clean the sponges? I have the sponges (order pad, order sponge, polishing sponges) just Wash out with warm water. Is that enough or should the product residue in the sponges/pads be eliminated with something else? I actually planned to use the order pads only for the polish and the order sponge only for the wax. Thank you for the tips for an inquisitive beginner!
