    machine washing microfiber stuff.....question

    Hi guys,

    I just bought some poorboys microfiber washmitt and towels. Just wondering if I should use Woolite complete or Woolite Delicate for machine washing the microfiber stuff? Woolite is kinda expensive though. Or do u guys have any other suggestion on detergent brand?

    thanks!

    I like the Micro-Restore type products , but they are not absolutely necessary. Products like the "free" (of dyes/perfumes) liquid versions of All or Purex are value priced and do a good job on clothing, linens and microfiber alike.

    For extra dirty towels, a pre-soak or stain pre-treatment may help with the appearance.

    1/4 - 1 cup of 5% white vinegar in the rinse water and you should be on your way.

    I use ALL and Arm & Hammer (dye, scent, and fabric softener free) and sometimes add some APC to the really dirty loads ... care instructions are on the microfiber bags too

    I just use liquid Tide for my MF stuff, just keep it in a separate load and no fabric softeners.

    I use HE Tide Laudry soap in a HE machine.

    haven`t had a problem.

    I put it on the cycle that has a longer soak time and sometimes, pause the machine and let them soak a bit longer.
