There have been many posts about this, and a lot of different answers.

If you add all of them up, it seems like a liquid detergent is the choice. Some use a detergent made for microfiber (I've tried Sonus' Der Wunder Wasche, others have used Charliesoap), some don't. Nowadays, I use a liquid detergent that doesn't have any scents or dyes. Hot water seems to be the norm.

Everyone seems to agree (and so do the manufacturers) that one should NOT use fabric softener.

I dry mine on low heat, and they seem to be ready to go. I've heard about the vinegar rinse, but have never needed it, though I don't detail as often as some people here.
