Cleaning microfiber with Palmolive?

For light cleaning of my mfs I usually just hand-rub them out under the tap.

For heavier cleanings I usually get them damp,then spread some palmolive directly onto the cloth, wet it again and start rubbing - usually removes all the dirt within 20-30seconds of rubbing (for some reason if I put the palm. into the isnk like I were washing dishes, it takes forever to rub the dirt out, but by putting it directly onto the cloth, it knocks it out very quickly), then I spend the next 4minutes flushing the cloth to make certain there's none left in it.

Usually after 2-3 cleanings with palmolive then I'll soak the cloths in some microfiber restore detergent from autogeek (not certain if it's doing anything or not, but it makes me feel better about using dish soap on my cloths )

Anyways, is there some reason why I would NOT want to clean them with palmolive? I've never thought about it because they come out clean, don't fall apart and everything ~seems~ good..........

Re: Cleaning microfiber with Palmolive?

bizump from 2nd page - alternatively, if anybody can reccomend a good de-greaser type material to use on MF other than palm. I'd like to hear it (I have some micro-fiber restore, but that's more for light dirt and waxes/polishes.....doesn't seem to do much with caked on dirt)
