    Microfibres towel problem

    Hi people

    I have some microfibres towels from rag master the blue edge ones there border less towels
    I'm starting to have issues with the towel fibres flopping instead of standing up and also find
    That they feel a tad rough when feeling them running my hand across the top of the fibres.

    I have washed them correctly with non bio type products and also microfiber wash products

    Does any one here know why this keeps happening

    Thanks
    Charlie a

    Re: Microfibres towel problem

    Im unfamilliar with that towel. Are you not able to get Cobra microfiber where you live? I have tried other microfibers from other companies other than Cobra brand, I know that other swear by other brands but I have never had an issue with any Cobra brand towel that I purchased from autogeek. I have had problems with linting and other towels just not lasting very long from other companies

    Well, lets start at the beginning? Define your wash and dry process. temperatures, products, etc.

    What products are you using with the towels? sealants, waxes, coatings, everything including the dog, etc.

    In my experience microfiber issues are more user created than product created. Not to say there's not bad product out there but when troubleshooting the problem it's frequently best to start at the beginning.

    Re: Microfibres towel problem

    Ok I start by washing towels at 30 degree wash on the delicates setting

    Then sometimes I may dry the towels on the lowest setting on delicates for about 10 mins

    I use these towels with quick detailer spray , compounds,polishes,and sealants

    Re: Microfibres towel problem

    What were towels being used for ?? Wax removal, drying, etc. Did fabric softener get into wash process ?? I have the same towels, and have not any problems. As others have said, let's start from the beginning !!!
