Properly washing waffle weave drying towels?

[nodule]

Hi,

Can I machine wash my waffle weave drying towels TOGETHER with my micro fiber towels
in cold wash and dry low, or must they be washed separately?
What do you guys do?

I apologize if this question has been asked before.

Thanks!

I wash all my towels and mitts used for washing, drying, and glass cleaning separate to prevent cross contamination but you can wash them with any other microfiber if you just want to do one load.

Yea, I wash my glass waffle weave, drying waffle weave, and exterior MFs all separately.

:agree:wash them separately. If you only have a few, wash them in a bucket by hand.:xyxthumbs:

If they are all microfiber, you can wash together. Depending on the quality of the towel, you may get dye transfer.

I wash all MF stuff together in hot water. Everyone's going to have their method. Pick and choose what's best for you and stick with it.

Check out this thread of MF cleaning.

What you don't want is polymers from spraywax getting on your drying towels (reducing absorbency) or glass towels (causing streaking). I always separate my towels.

Don't forget the white vinegar in the rinse.

Does that get out polish residue? I don't have that many. I just washed 2 ww in one load and 4 mf's with polish residue in another, but neither of those Are a full small load, but I didn't think I had any other option. Good call! How much MF detergent to how much water? I use pinnacle mf detergent if it matters. Thanks man! :xyxthumbs:

Never had that issue personally, but if it's a concern of yours, then washing separately is fine.

I do find my spraywax and WW/rw towels losing absorbency, but a lot of variables going on there
