Default From what I've read...

Hand-wash buffer pads and air-dry. MF bonnets can be machine washed, but no fabric softener.

Default I wash everythign in hot water with a little detergent and no fabric softner. I also run my pads

and wax removal towels separate from my drying towels and run them through 2 cycles. I then air dry the pads and dryer dry everything else.
