    Do you wash your drying towels?

    May be a dumb question, but all you use them for is wiping away clean water! I got some microfiber cleaning solution, should I toss it in the wash too or just let the air do the work and re-use?

    I wash my drying towels. Sometimes I miss a spot or two when washing and pick it up with my drying towel.

    Unless you work in a clean room you need to wash all of your towels. Surface and air-borne contaminates are everywhere and will eventually affect your towel surface.

    I wash them with a microfiber wash product.

    Yessir .....use them once and they go in the "dirty" pile, I have a clean pile of about 10 or so drying towels (use 1 per wash/dry session typically), when the dirty pile gets too high so to speak I wash them.......

    Absolutely. A wash won't remove every single piece of contamination and you'll be transferring some of that to the towel.
