MIcrofiber Detergents

Is this stuff any good or waste of Money. Not even sure If this is wise to use with a front loader.

I have been using Woolite to wash my microfiber towels. Any other suggestions would be great.

I also use Megs super degreaser as it work great as well.....also tried Megs APC+ which also worked well too
I used Sunlight dish soap & hot water back in the day....that worked great as well...

For just QD wipedowns and QW applications I use Pinnacle's version as a stand alone detergent. For soiled microfibers I wash with tide liquid first and then re wash with the Pinnacle detergent. My towels always come clean and are very soft.

Before doing a QD or QW I let the machine fill itself full with water and detergent before I start the wipedown on the car. As I use towels I put them in the machine one at a time and at the end of the job with the machine full of towels then I start it as I come inside.

FWIW, I purchased a large (32 oz.) bottle of Micro Restore and have used it on a dozen MF towel loads and I definitely am not impressed. I have tried different amounts of detergant and it alway's turns out the same, the MF towels come out rough and do not remove product very well.

I previously used liquid All Detergant with Oxi Clean and the MF towels came out clean and feeling much softer than the Micro Restore. The MF towels also perform better when wiping off product.

I use regular detergent when cleaning my rags. I just buy the off brand. They come clean every time.

Re: MIcrofiber Detergents

I have used regular detergent for all of MF's and pads (I presoak the pads to get any built up product out first if necessary), but the Micro Restore sounds like it could be a great investment (thanks for the link ). For those that have used it, does it do as it says and help to keep the integrity of the MF and the pads?

Re: MIcrofiber Detergents

I am going to try All free and clear with Oxi-clean next, if that doesn't work better than Micro Restore then I will stick with Micro Restore.

I dont use a fabric softener, but I do like those drier ball things with the spikes on them for while drying.

Dryer balls and vinegar for rinse in the wash machine.
