ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for cleaning buffing pads while attached to a buffing machine includes a hollow enclosure into which the pad may be inserted and partially enclosed. Rotatable agitating members are provided in combination with the injection of cleaning solutions pumped from a central reservoir onto the pad surface, as the pad is rotated by the buffing machine to which it is normally mounted. Rotation of the pad in contact with the agitating rollers combined with the application of cleaning solution causes the release and washing of particulate matter from the pad. The pad edge is also caused to rotate against stationary protuberances in the enclosure side wall to assist in cleaning the pad as well. A movable cover section is provided for ease of inserting and removing the pad within the enclosure, and the cover includes a central aperture through which the shaft of the buffing machine may be extended.
