I am in the process of ordering some microfiber pads both for my Sprayborg and my Oreck. Normally, I just use scrub pads and change up as I go along. I want to see what kind of difference it makes using absorbent pads. Wondering how long do you use the same pad, doing commerical work such as condo hallways, are you able to use both sides of the pad and how many uses can you get before you throw the pad away.

500 ft of use...

Wash em and reuse them over and over again until the foam breaks down and starts moving within...

I'll guess they're good for about 15,000 ft² under that Orbot

Thanks, I just bid on 2 more buildings with cgd. Pretty sure I will get it. About $1100 per building and will take about 4 hours each with the orbot. Considering selling my cimexes to buy another orbital. Most likely a Phoenix. I like that machine.

Those are similar to the ones I am ordering. 10 for my Oreck and 10 for the sprayborg to start. I also have 10 used glad pad style and 10 new ones that have been too pretty to use until now.
