Can we nominate this thread for "best thread title"?

 

The thread title should be "Mom's gone, I have to do my own laundry, so I ended up giving it to grandma" :lolsmack:

I can't believe that Mom still washes your clothes. Thud.gif

 

My step son would always take his jeans off with one leg out and the other inside out. After getting very p'd off one day while folding his clothes I told him to enter the laundry room because I had to show him something. I showed him the controls on the washer/dryer-Water level, temperature and what settings to put them on and how much laundry soap to use. He was only 12 years old at the time and to this day he washes and dries his own laundry. Enough of my ranting. clothes.gif

 

I am the evil step mother. evil3.gif:D

 

 

 

So on that note, if Grandma gets all the stains out I think you owe her a Full Detail on her car. mw0_best-smilies.gif:D:D

Not to hijack the thread, but why can't you wash all the MF towels together. I have my Adams MF towels, and then I have some bulk MF Costco towels I use for dirtier jobs. I was thinking of doing the pretreat, and just throwing them all in warm water.

 

The cheapo towels from the warehouse and discount stores leave microfibers galore... and don't want all those other fibers in the Adam's towels.

 

In addition to what the suggestion for keeping the black utility towels separate I also keep the glass towels separate. I don't want the glass towels picking up any loose fibers which would then end up on the glass I am trying to clean! :willy:

You gotta keep 'em separated.

Because you run the chance of cross contamination. For example, I use my black utility towels on my exhaust tips, and rims, while I use my DS towels for detail spray on my paint. I wouldn't want to wash them together and chance getting crap that came off my tires onto my black towels to stick to my DS towels and chance that it doesn't wash out.

 

Also, when you wash the black towels. They bleed like CRAZY. Especially if they're damp from being used. Trust me. I put 3 in the washer and the while 'pot' of water was black. Next time you fill up your washer, check out the water and see for yourself. Then you'll know why to keep them seperated :jester:

Dude, I swear by the 24 hr soak in a 5 gallon bucket...HOT water...

 

Pull them out, wring and rinse.....

 

Then spot treat with APC....

 

Wash on hot, cold rinse....

 

Bam, gone!

 

Funny you said that. My grandma put them in a bucket with some bleach and hot water. They've been sitting for a few hours, I checked on them and so far they're looking pretty good. She said she will scrub them by hand in the morning and throw them in the wash.

Ok so I got my MFR last week and today I finally had a chance to use it on some towels that had some nasty stains on them from when I put spray sealant on my rims(I did one small section, saw what damage it did and switched to the utility towel).

I washed them before with woolite and couldn't remove them. Heres what they looked like.

Now after a wash with MFR, as per instructed on the bottle, spray on soiled area rub in with fingers or against MF towel and if a small load use 1 oz of MFR Big load 2oz. I had a small load so I used one...Here what I found after I took them out of the machine.

I'm rewashing them again. This time I sprayed the soiled areas with shout, Rubbed it in with some special brush my mother has, I used some woolite and some blech. Lets see how this load turns out.

 

Update: This^^^ helped a little bit, but the stains are pretty much still there.

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls.

 

It took Anthony exactly 3,817 posts to figuire out how to wash his towels, bwahahaha.

 

Dude, I can't believe you trust anyone but yourself to wash your detailing $$towels$$ :). How old are you man, I always pictured you to be like a 25 year old, not a teenager :)
