How do I avoid all the "lint" I'm getting from my micro fiber towels?

I've never had any issues with my MF leaving residue on glass.

Just finished washing those wipes. Had to clean the lint trap 4 times on every load. Is that standard?

WhyteWizard- Interesting that they shed so much lint in the dryer, but didn't leave any on the glass, huh :think:



Sounds like those are a lot better than the ones I tried. Glad you found somehing (and a technique) that works so well for you.

Wow, count your blessings! MF lint on glass has been a real problem for me, even with MFs that're *made* for use on glass.

you just shouldn't use microfibers on glass. This makes me so mad when I see this. Grrrr lol Listen save your microfibers for paint only what you need to get is surgical towels.

You will never use a microfiber on glass again. you can wash these towel 1000 times and they still work as day 1. you wasting money everytime you use a microfiber on glass. . sorry for the rant. I just hate to see people throw money away

+1



:2thumbs:





FYI, I think it's actually fibers breaking off from the towel too and not lint picked up from the dryer or some other source. MF towels seem to cling more to the glass which is why I think the fibers seem to pull/break away from some towels on glass and not paint.



Just my $.02

So, on Barry's recommendation, I got a big box of surgical wipes for windows.

They are the ones from a rag guy that Barry linked to. They were used and washed but as I wrote, now, I'm washing them. Decided to go with the extra rinse.

I bet that's that problem right there. Never :nomore:listen to a guy named "Buffer" Barry for glass cleaning advice. The sun barely comes poking out through the clouds there and I'd be willing to bet his windows are covered with silicone tire dressing from being so close to the Auto Auction. :chuckle:



JK - I suggest to keep using and washing the heck out of them as much as possible. I wouldn't be surprise if it took 8-10 washes for them to "break in". Also, are you using the 2 surgical towel method with these?
