My gf dried my MF towels, is that bad?

[IMADreamer]

I detailed my gf's car and bless her heart she wanted to wash my towels for me which was nice of her, but....... She also dried them. They are definitely less fluffy now and kinda stiff. I've ready many times her not to dry them and I've never done that previously. So now that they've been dried should I not use them on my paint? or are they still ok.

 

Moral of the story, don't let your gf do your laundry.

This thread got my attention, I've been drying mine since day one.

They make great bath towels too!

 

Also the are GREAT for household Stainless steel. I use the Waterless Wash ones on my stainless appliances WORKS GREAT!

I used to do all the wrong things in washing and drying MF towels before I learned. Now I have a nice pile of interior towels because if it.

I used the dryer a few times until I started to wonder if they could pick up lint and fibers left behind by other clothes.

I have since started air drying them on a wooden laundry rack...in the house

 

I love your decor Ron. Very classic.

Oops. Time to take better care of my towels. Good thing I only have the two and I don't need to wash them that often. More on the way though. Need to get me some Woolite too.

i have heard you can boil them 5 minutes-be careful taking them out of the hot water. then dry-no fabric softener:xfingers:

Does Micro-Restore remove fabric softener?

Yes, but any detergent washing would also. This just works really well and is specifically designed for micro fiber.

At least you see the good side of your girlfriend for trying to help out. With my girlfriend, I would be like " WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!":mad: only because she has watched the Adam's videos and has the same "sickness" that i do

[IMADreamer]

You may need to do a treatment with some vinegar in that case... fabric softener is a pain to get out of the towels.

 

Ok I'll try that. I have a whole bunch more from today to wash too so I'll try some viniger.

 

Ooooo never good when you start with the saying "Bless her heart"

 

 

Yeah, she tried. She just didn't know. I appreciate her trying.

[Team Adam's]

She definitely used fabric softener. Low heat I think. I'll give them a rewash.

Kinda sounds like too much soap, I alway rinse mine twice. Its the thought that counts. Nice gf!

[Chris@Adams]

Mine get stiff if I don't dry them.They come out of the dryer fluffy.

Depends on if she used a high heat setting or fabric softener.

 

Start gentle, just rewash them using your standard routine and see how they come out.

They should be fine.

[b_pappy]

I wash and dry mine all the time. Maybe just re wash, only with micro-fiber, using liquid detergent or Micro-Restore, no fabric softener. Dry gently, again, alone and with no fabric softener, remove before before completely dry.
