  • Ultimate Wipe Detailing Cloth: "Wash with like colors".......whoops

    Well, I now have a dozen pink Ultimate Wipe Detailing Cloths.

    Who knew that orange (micro fiber) + white = pink?

    Oh well, they are still super soft!

    Just because of experience I wouldn't use those orange microfiber on the interior, because they have some kind of ink or something like this that it can be transfer to leather seats or whatever material your interior has

            i washed some of the vroom orange mf towels with a couple of new white artic mf towels. The white ones are not white anymore trust me.

            Now I see why everyone says to wash all new mf towels and especially wash the same colors together.

            Still work fine though

                I just turned some blue towels green by washing 48 brand new yellow towels with 4 blue ones. I grinned as I started the washer... I knew what I was about to do. I don't wear my towels, no worries here!

                  Yeah, I have also dyed some of my towels green...

                  I now have quite a few green Supreme Shine towels and a few blue Ultimate Wipes. Also, there are some green W8006's now.

                      hehehehe, I did the same to my super shines the other day, at first i was like "ahhh!!" then i remembered this will finally settle the "this is mine, no it's mine" conversations!! :P

                      Oh and Solstice, what i do it chuck them in a bucket, and add some hot water, this softens it all up, then i just grab some detergent, (stuff you use to wash your plates, not clothes) and give them a good squeeze, just keep squeezing them, with them in the water, for stubborn stuff like scratch x, i leave them in the water for a little while, then come back and squeeze them out again

                          I ordered 36 of the ADS blue microfibers. Washed them with one of my meguiars supreme shine.. and it came out with a blue tint. Also zapped one of my foam applicators.
