Shedding towel

airhog · 11-03-2008, 12:54 PM

I just bought the Adam's super plush microfiber towel. I was just using it today on my van to wipe off the detail spray and noticed it was loosing lots of fiber. Any reasons why? Any way to fix it?

How long have you had the towel for?

Right out of the box the towel will "lint," feel free to wash it and that should remove any loose fibers left behind during production. If it persists let us know and we'll replace the towel right away!

A few days.

Yeah, with these new ones, I noticed that too. However, after my first wash, I found it to not do it anymore. Remember, use hot water with NO fabric softener.

Yep I always wash any MF towel i buy prior to using it.

I find it very good for the towel's to wash them in hot water and put some vinegar in the bleach dispensor. And then I hang them to dry or use the delicate cyclone (if I am in a hurry for them)

Washing it does the trick, but PLEASE keep us posted, as it you have a defective towel, we want to replace it quick!

(Seldom have we had a defective MF towel from Korea, but it's happened!)

Thanks for using out goods AirHog!

I have washed the towel and now it seems to be fine. No more shedding.
