how do yall clean your MF? I'm about to splurge and invest in some good waffle weave MF for drying + MF applicator pad 4 applying LSP and i want them to last. Can I just throw it into my top feed washer with liquid detergent than throw it in dryer? the the applicator pad fall apart int he washer or dryer?....

thats how i wash my crappy tire MF and i notice there are still some light debris on the MF after the wash and dry also it doesn't seem to absorb as much water now...

Ken got it from me. He had an order from proper auto care and he combined his order with mine.

PM Ken though, he may be able to get you something even better. No promises though.

Liquid detergent pretty much makes it less absorbent. But I would highly recommend investing in some good MFs. I mean why would you want to wax a car and while doing so do more damage than good. Ken has a great selection of MF towels. The thing is, all of the products that Ken sells he has used and stands behind them. Whether it's just microfiber detergent or brushes. He's used them all and only sells what he has used and stands behind.

I got my MF wash from Ken and also have these from him

Both are great towels, you can't go wrong with any of them. I'd order 3 of each so you know what you like.

threezero: its funny you should ask that, because I was discussing this with ken on saturday. He said liquid detergent, or you can just smother your MF's in dish soap and give'em a good scrub and rinse well.

I guess that works as well. Boiling works as well but, I'd soak them in dish soap and scrub and then go ahead and wash them in MF detergent.
