Washing rags used to remove wax?

[jiffy]

I bought some flannel rags at advanced auto parts yesterday and used one to remove wax and buff my car. Now the parts of the rag where I used it to remove wax is covered in wax pills.

Do I just leave it as is, or is there a way I should wash them (woolite?). I don't know what effects putting something with wax on it like this would have on the washing machine either.

Pre soak them in a bucket of detergent before you put them in the wash. That might help.

just throw them into the washer with regular laundry detergent, no fabric softner, an ounce or two of vinegar if u want and set the machine on regular with hot water. thats all... ive washed my towels a million times and nothing adverse has happened to my machine. except i have noticed the water beads along the side walls. lol...

Do flannel towels remove wax without marring? My Vroom MF's dont remove wax worth crap. It took some QD to remove the gold class i used on my g-ma's car.

- Apply thinner layers next time you wax

and

- Don't use flannel rags :rolling
