how do you clean your detailing towels and applicators?

[imported_thecarguy]

When I detail one car, I use lots of towels and applicators. How do you clean them and have them ready to use the next day without screwing up your own washing machine?

Screwing up? You mean getting it full of wax? One solution is to buy two days worth towels and applicators. There are tons of threads about washing, but you can presoak anything gunky with some Dawn in a bucket, squeeze them through, and rinse them out before going in the washing machine.
