only wash microfibre with microfibre, hang dry. Vinegar during the rinse cycle will help it stay softer as it loosens fine dirt. Don't use fabric softener, liquid detergent is preferable, but if your water isn't "hard" then powder detergent works just as well.

The vinegar is also a good pro tip to keep in mind. Don't mean to hijack but I have a question along the same lines. My microfiber towels are starting to get a little worn, they arent as fluffy and they dont seem to have that static cling to them anymore. Will the vinegar in the wash cylce bring that back or are they just done for and I need new ones?

Also, while static cling does have the effect of picking up small particles, I do believe that it imparts its charge onto your paint. You get enough of that from the friction you generate when you wipe down! I wouldn't miss the cling if I were you.

Does anyone know how to get them so they dont leave lint everywheare. After I washed mine they leave tons of lint on my car.
Should i just wash them 2 or 3 times.
