Are we cleaning our Microfibers correctly?

Coatings=Crack- Eh, I consider any Communist/Socialist country to be the Devil. I don`t have a categorical issue with Chinese-built stuff, just with their System. And yes, usually greater up-front cost buying quality stuff, which is hopefully offset by other factors when appropriate (nothing wrong with "disposable [whatever]" if that`ll do the job at the right cost, but it`s seldom the way I want to jump).

I take mine to the local coin laundry place twice a year, because I don`t want washes, waxes, APCs, in the same place I clean my clothes (sorry to people who wash after me).

I have a bottle of Chemical Guys microfiber cleaner and I follow the directions, seems to work for me.

Just FWIW, I`ve never had that become an issue when I use the household washer for Detailing textiles (my shop`s washer has been dead for a while again..). But I suppose that depends on the washer too..

Heh heh, for that matter, I guess some of the household MFs get much nastier than my Detailing ones! Those do usually get run through the shop washer, but not always.

Yeah, that one worked fine for me too as best I can recall....no memorable issues at least, unlike some that either didn`t get things clean or sudsed something awful. I do still pre-treat with APC/etc. as needed though.

Oh, and a belated Welcome to Autopia!

Hey, how do you get by taking your MFs to the laundermat biannually? Gee, I`m cleaning some of my MFs after every car wash.
