Re: Segregation Of Microfiber Towels
Absolutely!
Washing drying towels with wax removal towels will reduce the absorbency of your drying towels!
I have mine segregated like this:
- Drying
- Polish/wax removal
- Final wipe/delicate paint (soft pristine towels)
- Jambs/misc
- Glass

A. Wax Removal, QD, Drying towels
I think your category "A" will cause some absorption problems with your Drying towels,mixing wax removal MF's in with them.

Re: Segregation Of Microfiber Towels
How important is it to separate your towels? I just wash all mine together...

Pretty important..just think of that microfiber you just used to remove sealant, the sealants almost never come out of the applicators or micros and you would want to use that same towel for same product next time to prevent cross contamination

Re: Segregation Of Microfiber Towels
I do it similarly to what Mike mentioned. I even have a 3 bin system that hangs on my shop wall.

Re: Segregation Of Microfiber Towels
So even with a dedicated MF detergent, my microfiber cloths are still contaminated with residue from car detailing products?

Not always, depends on what products you used. If you applied a sealant with a microfiber product,,that microfiber will somewhat always have some sealant in it. Just dedicate certain microfibers/pads ect to a specific product or job.
Example..Sealant application pads/applicators Use those for the next time you apply that same type product
Common sense is your guide, just think of that rag you cleaned up spilled lawnmower gas with,,,It always seems to smell of gas forever

I really like that 3 bin hamper thing that you show in the above post. Where can I get one of those? My towels end up spilling out of plastic bags onto the floor of my van and the then get thrown into a questionable quarantined area where they'll be used with caution (no black paint) I now have several thousand towels in that quarantined area, sure could use one of those 3 bin organizers.
I have the book and really learned a lot from it. You will enjoy it.
