Griot's Garage11078 Micro Fiber and Foam Pad Cleaner 35oz, White

I’ve been ordering car care products from Amazon for probably 15 years without ever experiencing the dreaded “wet box” where all of the contents had leaked during shipping.Well, I guess my luck finally ran out with this order. The box was severely crushed upon arrival and liquid was still leaking from it.I just happened to be at my mailbox when the US Postal Service delivery person arrived with my wet and crushed box still leaking its contents all over everything in sight. Upon handing the box to me, she started to complain how my package had gotten all of her other packages wet. And insinuated that I was somehow responsible for the damage to her other deliveries! (I think she stepped on it)Why does the Federal Government insist on hiring inept, incompetent, and unqualified people? And then never fires them regardless how badly they screw up.As I live in a rural area, tens of miles from the post office, she obviously mishandled the package as it was still in the process of spewing liquid.Sorry for my rant lol.Needless to say, Amazon replaced my order without any charge to me. Thanks Amazon!Now the review.I’ve tried several other brands to clean my microfiber cloths and foam correcting/polishing pads with mixed results. Some brands were OK and others just not worth the time it takes to place the order.This stuff just plain works. It completely removes any trace of wax, polish, or compound within a few minutes of soaking and gentle agitating. I’m a fan for life.

I detail a few cars in my neighborhood and honestly thought a dedicated pad cleaner was overrated as I used dawn dish soap and got decent results. I ran into a issue with Griots Garage all in one ceramic polish/wax not coming out of the pad at all as it is super hydrophobic... I decided to try griots garage pad cleaners and that was able to fix my issue in one application. I went back through my old pads and cleaned them with this product and saw a noticeable increase in pad's cleanliness. I will be using this going forward. Use in a well ventilated area as this product made me cough when used with a sprayer.

Griots foam pad cleaner makes it easy to properly clean your foam polishing pads

a little expensive but worth the price

All I can say is, thank you Griot's, for making a product like this. I just suggest this product, in a review left for some of their microfiber towels. We use microfiber and other high quality waffle towels on a daily basis, we've tried everything to keep our towels clean, and work like they do when they're first new. Finally a product that works! Yes it may seem a little pricey upfront, it took me a week to commit, but now I'll be buying more, before this jug goes empty. Here's the deal, if you're a car nut like me, this is the greatest product to come along since the microfiber towels themselves. When washing our towels (which is a tool in our business) we tried just doing a tablespoon of regular wash soap to clean our towels, and never used softeners or dryer sheets. Over a short time, these expensive towels wont absorb like when new, and the stuff doesn't get washed out of the towel. With this cleaner, it gets our towels cleaner than anything else we've tried and made some of the older towels work like new again. This is a big jug, and it just takes a little bit, so it'll last a long time. More importantly, we don't have to buy the expensive towels nearly as often, because this product keeps our current ones so nice, fluffy, and absorbent. We washed some older towels that wouldn't absorb anything, and after a couple washes they look nearly new and absorb excellent. This is a long review, because I'm a car care freak, like others looking at this product, and I just can't say enough good things about it, other than buy it, you'll love it!

I have been using this product successfully for several years and it really works well if you follow the directions.FOAM PAD CLEANER: This will clean all types of orbital foam pads and pads of different foam densities. I have used it to clean pads with carnuba based waxes and synthetic waxes. It will clean pads loaded with machine polishes for automotive uses and glass polishes. It will extend the life of foam pads and remove all particles, dirt and grease embedded in the pad. I saturate the foam pad and let it set for about 30-seconds then I massage it throughout the pad as I rinse it under hot running water. Pads are like new when I'm done.MICROFIBER CLOTHS: The key is to use a washing machine detergent without any softeners, perfumes or additives. I add the microfiber cleaner to the detergent, equal parts 1:1, then wash the microfiber cloths on a cycle using warm water. If you have grease stains on the cloths I spray a little Microfiber Cleaner directly on the dirtiest spots right before it goes in the washer. I air dry the microfiber cloths but you can also machine dry them on very low heat. Never wash microfiber cloths with any other material like cotton cloths or clothing. Using the Griots Microfiber Cleaner has extended the life of my microfiber and it will remove heavy deposits of waxes, polishes or cleaners.

I bought this foam pad cleaner after having used the GG foam pad cleaner in the 11078 38oz pad cleaner and I was disappointed to find out that this is a different formulation to that one. The smell is not very pleasant for this product and cleaning is a bit more difficult than the 11078 solution. It does its job after two applications, so it does work.

This is a must have product when you are trying to launder your microfiber auto cleaning cloths. It’s the best way to remove waxy residue and more from them and get them ready for next use.

Product works well to help condition microfiber towels when used in conjunction with your favorite "free and clear" laundry detergent. Will likely buy again when I use this bottle up.

In my experience, this is so far the most superior microfiber and pad detergent providing great results. Don’t forget it doesn’t replace regular detergent, you use this along with the regular one.

Works awesome on brushes and spot spraying heavily soiled mf towels before laundering.

As advertised. Quick delivery. Great product

It cleaned my microfiber clothes very well. Concentrated. Truly little product needed.
