wash your microfiber towels properly
Microfiber towels have special properties, so it’s essential to know how to wash and dry them correctly to avoid them losing their effectiveness.
1. Separate From Other Fabrics
Always wash microfiber towels separately from items. Don’t wash them with clothes or towels made from natural fibers that tend to shed, like cotton.
2. Shake off excess dirt
Before washing microfiber towels, give them a good shake outside or into the trash to loosen and release dirt and dust.
3. Use a Fragrance-Free and Additive-Free Detergent and Do Not Use Fabric Softener
Avoid detergents that contain fragrances or additives and don’t use fabric softener, which can coat the fibers and render them ineffective. Make sure not to use too much detergent. Refer to the detergent instructions for further guidance.
4. Add Vinegar to Remove Odors
If your microfiber towels aren’t smelling great, consider adding about a tablespoon of white vinegar to the load to help get rid of any odors.
5. Machine Wash in Cool or Warm Water Using a Gentle Cycle
Wash lightly soiled towels in cool water. If your microfiber towels are heavily soiled, use warm water. Choose a gentle or delicate cycle.
6. hang dry
To keep microfiber towels absorbent, hanging to dry on a clothes line or air drying on a flat surface are the preferred methods.
If you’d rather use the dryer, be sure to do the following:
• Dry microfiber towels separately from other items.
• Don’t add dryer sheets or dryer balls.
• Clean the lint trap thoroughly before drying to avoid any lint transfer.
• Use only low heat or an air-dry setting.
