Introducing the System 4000® Pad Washer
By Lake Country Manufacturing
In life, change is the only constant. In the world of automotive detailing, Lake Country Manufacturing views change as an opportunity to innovate. We are certainly no strangers to innovation, continuously researching ways to improve our products and accessories to serve both beginner and professional detailers better worldwide.
A crucial part of the automotive detailing process is cleaning your pads to ensure quality buffing and polishing. At Lake Country Manufacturing, not only are we here to provide world-class pads but we’re also able to help you keep those pads clean, maximizing their lifespan in the best way possible.
We’re proud to introduce our newest innovative product: the System 4000® Pad Washer featuring PureFlo® Technology.
The Science Behind Cleaning Pads
How System 4000® Pad Washer works is remarkably simple: it is a spring-loaded ribbed wash plate inside of a bucket, which, when pressed down upon by your polisher, uses a pump system to spray water and pad washing solution onto your pad, helping to clean it while it rotates.
The best bit: traditional pad washers recirculate dirty water thus ‘cleaning’ your pad with contaminated liquid, which is far from ideal. But, unlike those traditional designs, we’ve engineered System 4000® Pad Washer with a hidden secret compartment…
Keep Them Separated
The System 4000® Pad Washer uses a pump system to clean pads with fresh, unused water or cleaning solution to provide the best pad cleaning experience. Our unique yet simple design separates dirty water from the fresh cleaning solution by pumping from a lower bucket where the new solution resides, while increasing water pressure and reducing clogging. The dirty water instead ends up in the catch basin, containing a seal at the bottom engineered to prevent dirt and grime from leaching back into the clean solution below.
Think of this system as a “bucket within a bucket,” where the catch basin sitting above the lower bucket allows a user to stop, dump out the dirty water, and continue. This ensures pads will not be cross-contaminated with dirty water and old abrasive particles, providing a truly clean pad ready for continued use.
Notable Improvements
Lake Country Manufacturing focuses on innovation, and the System 4000® Pad Washer boasts many improvements over our original System 3000 Pad Washer. These innovations help ensure a perfect cleaning system for all our valued automotive detailing customers.
Some notable improvements that the System 4000® Pad Washer boasts include:
An improved handle that helps carry the bucket and balance the unit
Increased structure of the wash plate to improve durability and avoid flex or cracking
Modified open-top to decrease the quantity of water and solution from exiting the washer
Updated catch basin and pump seal tailored to prevent seal replacement with a new high-quality grommet seal.
As a detailer, it is essential to use pad washers to keep your pads clean

Bought this and used it this weekend on a job. I was able to go around the entire SUV on one urofiber pad and it looked brand new every time. Highly recommended!!
I have a 5 gallon bucket wheel dolley under mine. Roll it around the car. I clean my pad after every panel. 1 pad for the entire car. It is a really great tool to have
Brilliant!!!!
This is absolutely worth the investment hands down.
Just ordered one and am looking forward to using it. I'm a surveyor by profession and not a detailer, but I do enjoy investing in useful tools- "buy once, cry once."
I bought one last year. I was like oh what have I done. But once it showed up and I used it. Don't regret it at all.
I bought one this year and love it, I use the DIY Detail method and quite the amature detailer but loved the results well worth the investment
It's pretty expensive for a weekend or enthusiasts. The grit guard pad cleaner is also good. I just wash them by hand.
Same opinion from this weekender. A stiff brush, water, and pad cleaner.
pads are not cheap either though
@bkurt yes pads aren’t cheap but for the price of this machine you could buy all the pads you’d ever need and still be able to clean them with a simple brush or compressed air. The pad washer is definitely useful but it’s way overpriced and it’s buy old quality is ok at best. I have one and it was not built very well.
Great review Now I understand how these washers work. Thanks Chelsea
I think I need one of these. Thanks for sharing this with us.
I love mine and use it every polishing job. I recommend the Mckees 37 Pad Rejuvenator mckees37.com/products/polishing-pad-rejuvenator?ref=w8gzhuoews
Had one of the first designs years ago... It does work but there is the time to get it set up, etc.,... I still use a lot of pads, throw them used, in a bucket of Snappy Clean, and then clean them by hand after..They are easy to clean, rinse, and are dry in a little over 24 hours... But I have a lot of pads, so this is not a big deal for me... Thanks for showing how this works... Some people will really like it...
Awesome video 👍
I let my pads soak in a bucket with some 3D towel kleen. I rinse them under cold water and spin them in a modified 5 gallon bucket. Thanks for your videos. I now am doing paint corrections for friends and getting paid for it.
Thank you for sharing that info and Thank you for your continued hard work in trying to help others.
Have a blessed day.
I used to know a guy who would use a hose and a screw driver turn the machine on low rpm and have at it lol this looks way easier 👍👍❤️
Looks well made and something that will likely pay for itself for someone who polishes almost on a daily basis. But for the average DIYer, the its bulk and the price tag don't make it highly appealing; if it was half-ish the price I think it would be a no-brainer to buy it.
you can do entire car using one pad with this otherwise you will need 6 to 8 pads
thinking how many different type of pad we are working with depend on different finishes worth the price tag even for a DIYer
not to mension you are working with cllean pad every single pass it is an awesome tool for polishing
I just hate that this came a month after I got 3000D unit. Maybe I'll try to mod it to keep the dirty water out. It makes since why my pad cleaner isn't doing as well anymore. Thanks for the video.
GFCI is one thing to remember when using this.
I am surprised there are no knocks off of this product. It’s still expensive with little competition.

Hi… is there a difference between the system 4000 and 4000 deluxe ?
Thank you and god bless..
From DUBAI with ❤
I would love to have one
Nice system!!
Fyi- the previous model was the 3000D and this new model is the 4000 Deluxe. But its not the 4000D as I kept referring to it as. Its forever in my brain as 4000D but if you search for it make sure to search "Lake Country 4000 Deluxe Pad Washer" 🤦♀️
You talked about cleaning them and continuing to use them around the vehicle. Did you mention the drying time they need?
They spin almost dry but I rotate at least 3 pads per vehicle and get the most dry but it actually primes the pad and you dont need as much product with them slightly damp
Great Review as Always ! How do you like the smooth buffing pads and what brand are those ? Thanks ! 😎👍
Looks like a great unit. Did you notice any spray coming out without that top shield like the older model has.
Yes it has a splash zone but I didnt like the guard as it restricted me so glad they removed it. I just know to steer clear of the car when using it
Mine won’t pump, and I just bought it
I’d contact them for customer support as they have a good bunch of ppl there that can help you out
Hello Chelsea,
I hope you are doing well.!
If you don’t mind.
I destroyed a wool pad cleaning it on the pump that gets the solution out..
I noticed you are working on them did they change how they design this part make it less sharp.
It does feel smoother but only slightly imo. It still has pronounced bumps for the water to come out of
Thanks for the information
Does it work with microfiber pads?
Way cool...what are the purple pads?
3d One purple polishing pads
I'm in york pa so I was wonder if you had a website for your services??
www.A2dlancaster.com
How much dose it costs
$165 but if you use my coupon code CHELSEA10 you can save 10% off
So once you clean the pads, do you immediately use them or do you like to let them dry a bit?
You can do either but if I'm going to immediately use them I run a quick microfiber over the surface just to get it a little more dry while spinning on low
Is the initial setup hard?
Not at all. Fill with solution, put buckets in, pump and use.

1st
👍🖐
😂European toilet!😂. Well….for mobile guys….🤷🏻♂️
🤣🤣
Another thing to note is that this slings water all over the place when spinning the pad dry which isn’t great for your polisher as it will get wet
I have the LCS 4000. I was on the fence for a while about it but it definitely is very useful for all the reasons you mentioned and it makes cleaning pads a breeze while saving you time but I think it’s massively overpriced. A pair of plastic buckets, a pump, and seal shouldn’t cost $180. I don’t find the build quality all that great either. Mine had a misaligned screw and spring so the top mushroom shaped washed basin constantly gets stuck when pumping it which reduces the overall efficiency & makes it a pain to use. My unit also had several sharp plastic jags and pieces left over from the manufacturing process which would tear up a pad that I had to file down. I got mine on sale for $130 and even at that price I feel it’s a way overpriced. This should cost about $75 at most. Is it useful and time saving, most definitely… but it’s price point and build quality are major downfalls.
