Hello fellas... Today I washed my daily driver Subaru Tribeca and used Schmitt wash mitt and Detailer's choice giant Bone Sponge and used CG Fluffer supreme MF (BLUE with red edge)

After washing the car, I use Micro-Restore MF detergent to wash those 3 items listed above. Settings on the Washer were Delicate, Warm h20, for 40 mins and medium cycle. Not too much load and used about 1 oz.

----> 40 mins. later, pulled my sponge and wash mitt and slight blue dye transferred to it. It smelled like Clorox and some bleach but the product said no bleach or softener added.. Im a little confuse as to why this happened.

---> anyone had the same problem?

After a couple washes the towels will stop bleeding color. I tried micro-restore a couple month back and i didnt really feel it made a difference with regular detergent. So far the best mf wash i've used is from CG, hands down.

right... i have to see when the MF dries and see if it still retains softness.. ill update this tmrw ... I used regular detergent with my last MF and they stiff not so stiff but enough to notice...

Also... Do you guys put your MF towels in the DRYER? or hang it? I air dry my MF towels and it seems to get stiff that way..

I've used Micro Restore exclusively, and I really like it. It brought back some cheap Costco MF's, and keeps all my other MF's nice and soft and clean.

My all white Adams WWMF does have a blueish tinge, but that's no biggie in my book.

oh ok.. did you put your MF to dryer? or hang air dry?

I put my MF towels in the dryer...autodry set to low heat. My basement is too Blair Witch scary to hang anything to dry.

[reefer_bob]

Yes, dryer on low heat.

I also add a couple oz of white vinigar to the final rinse.

what does the vinegar do ?

Basically releases any contaminants/cleaners/leftover residue and acts as a natural softener.
