I ruined a couple of pads my first time out as well. In my case I did not change the pad until it was too late It was pretty dry

In which situations do you use the beige Fiber-plus scrubber pads, and where do you get them? Thanks.

Sometimes on the first use or two, some threads will pull out from a pad.

I buy Fiber Plus pads from www.excellent-supply.com.
I use them when a carpet is heavily soiled, or there are a lot of spots to break up.

Every time I try to clean commercial carpet it tears my pads all to pieces as well. I called around trying to find out why and everybody I spoke with said they never heard of that happening before.Glad to see its not just me.

Is your pad wet enough?. Carpet presprayed Holy glider or solid. Or maybe even no glider. Cotton pads or Turbo pads? Well I am out of idea's

We used 100% cotton pads and yes they were wet enough. Carpet was presprayed as well. The same thing happened on my residential berber job. Needless to say we shelfed the holy glider and stick with the thin glider. Not as much ground coverage with the thin glider as opposed to the holy but peace of mind that we won't ruin our pads. So far so good!
