VT, on that link they have that green MF applicator. I have the same and they looked the same. I used BF MF wash ~ 3 to 4 oz and it did not come out clean, not even close

Any recommendations?

No Bleach or Fabric Softener. Wash with like towels only

Many swear by boiling in vinegar (2oz. to a pot), then washing as normal. I haven't tried it yet, but will soon.

I also find it beneficial to always do a second rinse cycle. Seems to help. Oxyclean works well too. Just throw a scoop into the wash in addition to detergent.

Use some for wheelwells and other areas that won't get original clean, they'll get clean using the above mentioned process. I've used xmt pad cleaner then washed with dawn and hot water prior to the wash machine, remember no fabric softner.

This is fundamental: softeners destroy the MFs unique ability to wipe without damage to the surfaces.
Wash with hot water (above 60º C - 140 F), use a basic powder detergent.

Whats the product and what was the towel used for? I have tested 4 or so MF washes and BF and CG never failed.

IF its tough stain use a APC first.

Here is my review of BF wash, no apc was used.

Is BF safe to use in a HE washing machine. It's the only one that doesn't say it in the description..
