Dear Brian et al.

    May I offer another solution which has worked very fine for me. 

    Every now and then when my wife Betty is not around i would sneak a
    bunch of buffs into her washing machine and simply wash them at 95
    degrees C with normal washing powder. 

    When washed I take them out of the machine, let them drip over the
    sink for a quarter of an hour or so and then simply spin them on the
    buffing machine, holding a plastic bucket around it. 

    It is not as messy as using a rake and it also helps you rescue
    those polishing buffs that some student have contaminated with
    coarser buffing media. It does not do any harm to the washing
    machine, but I know Betty would hate to see it :->
