It is advised that you don't try to mix any chemicals or soaps in your home to clean wool pads particularly. Such pads are very sensitive and must be cleaned with high-quality cleaning solutions, as we mentioned if you try to use dishwashing liquid and tap water. The chances are that the pads will be slimy and continue to excrete soapy substances when you use the buffer tool. Best if you can get degreasers or any wool pad cleaner from the market.
