1. MF`s: wash separately using Micro-Restore or one of the other brands of detergent made for MF’s. Use two rinse cycles, no bleach or fabric softner. **

2. Rags/towels: wash with a good liquid detergent, my bottle of Micro-Restore says it’s good for towels and chamois too.**



**If rags/MF`s are very dirty or caked with product you can soak them in a bucket first (do the MF`s separately) then rinse before loading them in the washer.



3. Foam/cotton pads: soak in a bucket of dawn, when clean rinse well and let dry



4. Chamois: what’s a chamois? Is that the hard piece of leather old timers used to dry a car with? (just kidding). It’s been so long since I used a chamois I couldn’t begin to tell you. First the absorber, then MF’s, and now WW MF’s have been my drying tools for years.

When washing cloths that you`ve used for polishing and waxing, it`s a good idea to add some white vinegar during the wash process. The white vinegar will help cut thru and release the polish and wax from the cloths.
