Can you store and reuse the pads, and if so, how do you store them and is there any pad washing or cleaning between uses?

[@3MCollision]

Yes, you can store and reuse pads. We recommend keeping the packaging that the pads came in to store and reuse. If you don't have the packaging anymore, storing them in a clean, dry place is recommended. It's also best practice to clean pads between uses -- we have this 3M Conditioning Brush (PN 05761) that can help clean any dried material off your pads.

Please check your recording equipment, I kept hearing totally unrelated and disrupting (rock?) 'music' in the background. I will be back and watch the whole video when that problem has been fixed.
