    Microfiber Care

    Just a question I know when using the Wolfgang Microfiber Cleaner and Rejuvenator it says to use hot water and cold rinse. My question is my washer is a HE with the ability for steam. Would that do any good or would it harm the microfibers? Also it says to use the power wash or longer wash process. Mine has a powerwash cycle that is about 2.5 hours. Is that overkill or the longer the better? Last question I have the DP pad cleaner that I soak my microfibers that have been used to remove wax or polish before washing. Do those need to be rinsed out before throwing in the wash or would it be better just wring them out and put them straight into the wash?

    I wouldn't use steam but yes hot water is best. For an HE washer I would rinse out the towels first. My washer has a 2x rinse setting so I always use that. I wash on the regular setting normally but every 4th wash I use the super heavy duty setting. The risk of any washer setting hurting the towels is minimal, the damage is caused by overdrying or using too much heat to dry. Larry @ AMMONYC has a good video on this.
