Don’t use fabric softener on bath towels as well. It causes the material not absorb water as well. You wind up smearing the water around instead of absorbing

@gettingthere2452 2 месяца назад

Just avoid fabric softener. A friend had someone service the washing machine and there was a whole lot of gloop in there from it and the service person said it was nasty stuff.

@rswow Месяц назад

Use vinegar as a fabric softener. It works. Also, to get cotton towels clean, you need to add washing soda along with detergent. Helps also to wash them in hot water and let them soak for an hour.

@_Jem_ Месяц назад

Instead of fabric softener I use dettol laundry wash. Works great with the added benefit of cleaning the washing machine at the same time as the clothes.

@cocoanutkobold7964 11 месяцев назад

Tip from health inspector/kitchen worker. 100% cotton, tight knitted, dish towels (the ones with the offset stripe down the center), can be used anywhere, do not melt, can be abused, cost roughly the same as microfibers, look attractive, do not scratch surfaces, and are sustainable to boot. As you use them, toss them into a 5 gallon bucket of water with a single scoop of oxyclean. The oxyclean slowly (few days) breaks down into hydrogen peroxide and gently bleaches the towels. By the time you get through a set of towels the the bucket full will be ready to be washed with any detergent of your choice. They even come in all black for dealing with meat and oils.

In the car detailing world where we use lots of microfiber towels for all kinds of different things like buffing waxes, if you have towels that are super clogged up and not absorbing water anymore there are dedicated detergents that bring them back to like from companies like The Rag Company

@jessejohnson2551 2 месяца назад

Yeah, if they are super dirty maybe once with regular detergent, but the rags to riches opens up and improves even glasses cleaning cloths or improves absorbency of towels, always cold wash and air dry. The longer you soak the better, 2 hours is sufficient but overnight is a game changer.

@GregConquest 10 месяцев назад

The whole video is 3 minutes 43 seconds! Great! Concise and on point. One further note about using fabric softener, also keep it away from microfiber, or any other cloths that you use to clean camera lenses or display screens. The softener leaves a residue on the cloth that will cloud the lens/screen.

Yes, I washed the ones I bought first like washcloths and then was upset that they didn't "work", so I got online and found pro videos on what to do and bought some new ones. One ideas was to wash then in mesh zip bags in the laundry with the gentle detergent, then dry them on low so they never tough other items.

@altereddogma 12 дней назад

Fabric softeners coat your towels, bedding, and clothes with a substance, which builds up over time and not only feels weird but slowly damages the fabrics. It makes towels less absorbent from the get-go. The residue from fabric softeners builds up and damages your washer and dryer.

I’ve been a Norwex consultant for years and never knew to not put them in the dryer with heat. I have been washing them separately with appropriate detergent, but so going to switch to air dry setting from now on! Thanks for the tip!

@txgal2986 10 месяцев назад

As a Norwex consultant, we’re taught to wash them in hot water and soak them in hot water to release the stains, if they don’t come out in the wash. It’s good to do every once in awhile to loosen the particles that get stuck in the weave. Norwex microfiber holds on to the bacteria, until it’s cleaned. We did a test, using the swabs the health inspectors use to test for contamination. We rubbed raw chicken on the counter, wiped it with the Norwex cloth, then tested the cloth and it showed no bacteria. Next, we used that same cloth to wipe down a different area of the counter. Then, we tested the counter and no bacteria showed up, so the bacteria didn’t transfer to another area of the countertop. There’s a video demonstration on RU-vid. Technically, you could clean your toilet, then your sink, with the same cloth, because the bacteria won’t transfer. BUT, that just sounds gross and we’re used to bacteria transferring. All microfiber are not the same, either. Some are more plush and not as tightly weaved as others.

@curlygurlxo 11 месяцев назад

I read that you do need to dry them with heat because it brings back the static needed to cling to the dust. I don't have any issues with collecting dust when using the dryer heat. Also it doesn't really matter about color coding by job if you're putting them together in the washing machine anyways. All the liquid, chemicals, and germs are getting combined in there.

@sdennen 11 месяцев назад

I was wondering that myself, washing them together.

@curlygurlxo 11 месяцев назад

@@sdennen I just use paper towels/wipes for the toilet area. I rinse and soak my microfiber to get the biggest dirt and dust off before putting it in the wash with everything else. The only issue is lint and strings from other clothes will get stuck when doing it that way, but I just don't have enough microfiber towels to do a whole load with.

@ystacalden 11 месяцев назад

wouldn't it just be the friction of brushing against each other as they tumble of the dryer restoring the static? It probably does help in that case to use a dryer, but using it on cold would work just the same without the melting risk.

People keep giving me these HUGE, enormous jugs of fabric softner, which I just don't use, so I fop them off on somebody else. I wish people could understand what fabric softner ALSO DOES: it coats your towels ( and everything else ) so the towels DO NOT ABSORB MOISTURE AS WELL! I used to buy these fuzzy blankets from Mexico, ruined them the minute I got them in the wash with FABRIC SOFTNER! Fuzzy stuff doesn't like that stuff either! So, IF you are a fuzzy freak, such as myself, you'll need to avoid RUINING things with the fabric softner. I also like crisp Egyptian cotton sheets..... that's baking soda and vinegar with a tiny bit of soap... and NO FABRIC SOFTNER! Thank you for making this video, I work in place OBSESSED with dumping tons of this stuff in the laundry. Have you ever noticed that you can't rinse the stuff off the cap once it dries? Uhhh huh... LET THAT be a great message about what it's doing to your clothes. I can't even get started with where I stand with BLEACH! Just NO. Thank you. NO!!!!!

You shouldn't use fabric softener with any towels. The way it makes the towel "soft" is by plugging up the spaces with gunk. So the towels don't absorb water as well or at all. I wonder if the vinegar soak might pull that stuff out and refresh a towel's ability to absorb water.

@RARenfield 10 месяцев назад

Omg as a cleaner the amount of people who wash the cloths with their towels is amazing. But I have to wipe a surface about 6 times.

You know, three years ago I would have thought this to be the least necessary, biggest time waster agglomeration of information on RU-vid. WRONG! Thanks for the extraordinarily useful information. I discovered the magic of microfiber a few years ago and have been cleaning them incorrectly. Thanks for the *very* useful information.

I soak mine in vinegar and baking soda diluted with water for about 2-3 hours and then just wash with hands. It works perfectly

@grandegracia 11 месяцев назад

Vinegar and baking soda neutralize each other, so it would be a wiser idea to use just the baking soda

You’re essentially soaking them in salty water.

Does this get them clean if they are really dirty? And I don't think they'll be sanitized.

Look up the properties in vinegar, very good for cleaning. They sell cleaning vinegar in stores.

I've been washing them for years. They pile up quick in the wood and metal shop. For the cleanest towels.......pre-soak in 5 gallon buckets overnight in hot water and soap. Wash the next day. Hot water. Lot of soap. Run on heavy cycle.

I no longer have a washer/dryer, so go to a laundromat. I will never have enough microfiber towels to make a full load, so have always mixed my towels in with my one load of wash. I have always soaked my towels first in Oxyclean, but if vinegar will work better, I always have that on hand. So do I need to hand wash all my towels? I always wash in cold water (mainly jeans and t-shirts and undies). Very informative video! Thanks.
