Question microfiber cleaner

when i first ordered my microfibers i got the dp cleaner, it was a combo or bogo at the time.... well it didnt really do much for me, stains still there.. so i went in search of some new and the pinicle rejuvinator went on BOGO last time and i snatched it up cause it had an amazing write up on the site with before and after pics... well i took my before pics and then washed.. just got them out of the dryer and it wasnt even worth taking after pics... i can post some pics and yall tell me if they are just too soiled or what, i dont think thats the case. anyone got any products they like and that work??? ive got about every cobra towel they make and will be using it on all of the guzzlers, jr, shamrock, glass towel, gold plush i need some help!!!

Re: microfiber cleaner

I use the Pinicle Micro Rejuvinator and I like the results. It seemed to make my better towles a little more fluffy and cleaner.

Re: microfiber cleaner

I wouldn't worry about the stains, as long as they are clean. You should dedicate your mf's for certain jobs. Like certain mf's for wax removal, QDing, polish removal, IPA wipe down, etc.

Re: microfiber cleaner

I've got them segregated or what have you. Labeled and shelved for different areas of car and different products. The page for pinicle rejuv shows stains gone and that's just what I was expecting. They are clean and fluffy tho

Re: microfiber cleaner

Something in between delicate and normal. Pre-soak with warm/cold.

Re: microfiber cleaner

I run mine on normal. But I use the heavy soiled option with warm water. Are you using 3oz of DP(full measuring cup)?

You shouldn't have stains after washing except for dirty work like trim dressing, wheels and tires, under the hood etc. Just use the cheap Costco towels for those jobs. Drying, wax removal, QDing, glass cleaning, should not stain your mf's.

Re: microfiber cleaner

I like cars as much as anyone, but ya'll need to be evaluated for OCD. There are many medications for this illness. Admitting there's a problem is the first step in treatment.

Re: microfiber cleaner

I had the same problem until yesterday. Here's my advice: I use Microrestorer MF detergent. Take your MF's and place in your washing machine with hot water. Add your detergent and let the machine agitate the towels for at least 5 minutes. Turn off washing machine, and let soak overnight. Then next morning, turn washing machine back on and let the washing/rinse cycle run out.

You will notice a drastic improvement in stain removal. It may not remove all the stains, but will come pretty darn close.
