How to clean microfiber towels when not a full load?
Purchased a Black 2014 Acura MDX in 2017. Been a long time coming but finally decided to approach the front bumper that had a lot of bug damage etched into plastic. I wish I had taken a picture of the before but did not and will not forget to take before pictures in the future.
I have just finished wet sanding front bumper of car followed up with 105/205 combo and a couple of coats of Collinite 845 over CanCoat. Now I have a few microfiber towels to wash.
How does everyone wash a handful of towels that is not a full load to wash? Will it hurt to leave compound, polish, or wax in the towel for several days? Do I soak them for the several days in my 3D towel kleen until I detail the car on the weekend and have a full load?

Set washer on small load and wash them on hot. Presoak them if they’re really dirty or have lots of product on them.

I currently use washer in small load. But if I had only 3 or 4 would you soak them for several days in a little of the 3D or just wait until you have a full “small load” to wash?

For me, depends on what’s on them. If it’s coating then I’ll wash quickly. If it’s a tough sealant or wax, might soak. Otherwise, they sit in the basket until I feel I have enough to wash.

If it’s only three towels or so, I’d just let them soak in a bucket w/ some tide, then wash them when I had a normal small load. I really don’t overthink this.

I’ve been letting them sit as well and figured I’d ask. I do like the idea of the let ring them soak in some detergent.

Gets some snappy clean. Works well to soak and get polish, waxes and sealants out of pads.
Even towels i’ve used for coatings come out good.
Soaking in detergent may not be strong enough

Same here. I use 3D Microfiber Cleaner and the sanitary cycle on my washer.

Snappy clean worked well. Will keep it in my arsenal. I bought a mckee’s pad cleaner back when AG was clearing out Mckee’s. This BF looks the same and ehat I will order when my Mckee’s runs out
