0 GerryC Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 (edited) I wash cold by hand with woolite, and a tiny bit of bleach if the towels are stained or have any visible dirt. I don't put my MF in the dryer, I air dry them Edited September 8, 2009 by GerryC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Team Adam's Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I personally do a warm wash. Wax build up isn't always broken down by detergents alone, the warm water helps to soften any product that might be caked in the fibers. There is no right or wrong answer, the only thing to avoid is HIGH HEAT... that will melt fibers and destroy your MF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chewy Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I use hot water but I am cheap so my heater is turned down... lol Like Dylan I believe it helps remove waxes and such. I air dry over a sweater rack. The key is no high heat and DO NOT wash with anything other than MF stuff. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still stand by cold water. My momma had me doing laundry since I was 7 years old. I'm 46 now, that's a lot of practice. Cold water with the right detergent works. It is also the least destructive to clothing. Cold water, air dry for me. You should feel my towels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sundog Detailing Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I agree with A.J. that cold water is best for the longevity of the MF. I use micro-restore and it is designed to break down polishes and waxes, it works really well even in cold water. Jenny and I stopped using dryer sheets long ago but there can still be contamination of the dryer sheets so I air dry mine now after ruining towels in the past. I also hand wash and air dry.

0 Bunky Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I use Micro-restore but have also used Woolite. He machine. Machine wash warm, 2 rinses, add a little vinegar (1/3 cup to rinse reservoir). No bleach. All consistent with 99% of the mf towel care instructions. Wipe down dryer prior to wash with a APC to remove any fabric softener on the interior. Dry using warm (casual setting) and dryer balls. You do not need to get them very dry.

0 Team Adam's Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 That's a very good and interesting point. I never thought about left over dryer sheet contamination. Thats why my junky door jamb and miscellaneous use towels go thru first... if they get any trace amounts of softner it won't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
