| | | Storage question
What do you typically do with your MF towels after usage? I tend to hang them in the garage. I'm wondering if this may not be a good idea. Would that allow for them to collect dirt, dust, etc. that coud then be transferred to the car? Putting them in a bag would not be a good idea if they are wet...correct? So, what is the best way to store them in between use?
thanks |

| | | I tumble dry my mf's on low or hang dry them in my laundry room.
Once they are dry I put them in extra large ziplock bags by usage type ie. Paint towels together, glass towels together, wheel towels together.
I would imagine that hanging tham in the garage where there is dust particles in the air that could attach to the mf would not be the best idea.

| | Once my MF's are used, they are kept together in a bucket seperate from all other towels and pads. I then have them washed ASAP, and kept in a small sealed cabinet to keep out dust, dirt and other contaminents they can capture and rub against finish.  |

| | | As I use them I throw the dirty ones in a woven look plastic basket/tub. Wash and dry them in the evening. Fold them and stack them in another woven plastic tub.
Got the tubs at the $1 store for ------(?). Pretty colors too. |

Im too young to be married. Now if I could teach AND GET my girl friend how to wash my MF and put them away then that would be somethin else!

| | | I take my towels from my truck every couple of days and dump them in a container by the washer. Once a week I wash the three loads (grunge, window, drying) and put them in laundry bags. I store most in my truck but my excess grunge gets stored in garage. My wax towels get stacked inside and washed as needed. They get stored in ziplocks. | |
