Microfiber towels Posted By: ryguy_45832 On: 11-07-2009 @ 11:52:30 Reply | Edit Just bought some and would like to know if there's a simple solution to washing them. I checked on camaroz28.com but they seem to prefer an elaborate solution to cleaning the towels with several ingredients. -- 94z28 D.D. slp cai, 3.42's, flowmaster exhaust, and tb bypass. 94z28 13.0@109 (still tweaking) best 60ft:2.22

I'm not hardcore enough to purchase a leaf blower to dry the car. -- 94z28 D.D. slp cai, 3.42's, flowmaster exhaust, and tb bypass. 94z28 13.0@109 (still tweaking) best 60ft:2.22
Posted By: 94RedFormula On: 11-07-2009 @ 14:11:11 Reply | Top | Edit I just wash mine in the washer, nothing else, just those towels and a tiny bit of laundry soap. I'm with Ryanfx, they really creep me out when I fold them after washing them. But I'm okay with them when I'm washing or waxing. My formy has her very own leaf blower!! I love it, get's all those drippy places. -- 94 Formula M6 - Jackie - I love my Formy!

I dont want the wax, oils, etc in my washing machine and the towels are relatively cheap so why not? I dry with the silicone blade, micro fiber twels and cotton diapers. If time is an issue, out comes the leaf blower. -- When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained - Samuel Clemens Go wake up the Gimp.

Posted By: Greenbird On: 11-08-2009 @ 13:43:07 Reply | Top | Edit Like what was said above, light detergent in the washer, and then air dry them. don't put them in the dryer. Also, Oneowner, i used to use a silicone blade too, till i found out how bad it was for the paint.

Even my painter gave it the thumbs up.

Posted By: chevytrucker On: 11-08-2009 @ 20:25:21 Reply | Top | Edit Blade=awesome. Oh, and wash the microfibers separately and you should be fine. If you throw them in with some terry towels or really anything else they'll get all ratty. -- 96 Chevy S-10 4.3 LITERS OF FURY!!!
