[BigAl3]

how are you washing/drying them and how old are they?

 

[vtec92civic]

that would be my question. What is your process as far as using them and washing them.



I was just at Ranney's shop the other day and picked up a crap load more towels. I have some Waffle Weave's going on over a year and they still pick up water as if they were brand new.



Don't wash them with junk towels such as one's you would clean the engine and door jams with etc . . . .



Don't use fabric softeners in either the wash or dryer.



I personally pre soak mine, wash them and hang dry. I never dry my microfibers in the dryer as the heat will over time destroy them.

I've heard to boil them with a capful of white vinegar if they stop absorbing well

Try 2 or 3 extra rinse cycles after the next washing. It's likely a residue build up

I always rinse my microfibers twice, they seem to hold soap suds in the wash. With the double rinse they seem to come out better.

yup wash it multiple times with dawn vinegar and a microfiber restoring detergent such as micropak's offering which i like the best after trying 3 brands. u use less product to get clean results.

And sometimes/eventually, they simply don't work as well as they did when they were new no matter what you do.
