Guys,

I don't want to throw out my microfiber towels but one thing I can;t get rid of it the lint on the towels...you know the kind that gets stuck and have to pull off by hand. Is there a better way to do this so that I can avoid scratching up my car with these towels?

 

try one of those cat and dog hair remover things, you know, the rolly ones.

 

i just took all of mine not even 20 min ago and put them in the washer. second time i have done this and they normally come out lint free after you dry them.

 

just shake the towels..and you should be good..

 

do not put it in the dryer it would mess up the towels just wash them n let them sit outside

Incorrect sir :P. I work for a Commercial cleaning company. We use microfiber towels for 90% of our cleaning. Throw them in the washer and dry them on knits/blends and they will come out 100% almost new

 

I put mine in the dryer and the microfiber towel came out weird so it left swirl marks. My friends does detailing business and they go through like 5-6 dozen a week and they told me its the best way to dry them. That's all... but thanks for the info

 

oh for sure, hehe. Just put them on LOW settings in the dryer and they should be fine.

 

also agree with you.

leaving them outside makes them like hard and rough.

put them *****es in the dryer on light heat mode or whatever it is. put a softener in there too. damn yo. there ready to sleep with there so soft and smooth. and they work great again.

also the softener helps keep them static free so they dont feel like sticky/rough.

 

Toss em and buy more if you think they will damage the paint.

 

Well, microfiber cloths are supposed to feel like that. The static electricity helps catch all the loose lint and fibers that your other towels leave behind. So, NEVER use fabric softener on microfiber cloths.

 

lotta different info in here.
^^ is right. The static helps trap loose dirt in the fibers so that as your cleaning the car it lifts the dirt away and doesnt scratch the car. Supposed to be coupled with something like soap and water or detailing spray when wiping dirt. Not supposed to just rub the car down w/o lubrication.

 

yea my friend details cars and he told me never use fabric softener on microfiber towels

 

Correct.. no bleach or Fabric softener on it!!!!

just normal wash and dryer normal and come fine!!

I detail over 8 years and use with Meguiars, Zaino products and work on alot on Meredce Benz, BMW, AUDI, alot high end cars and my evo..
