One of the most useful and essential tools in an auto detailing kit is the microfiber towel. This small, smooth, and soft towel has tightly woven fibers that are static charged. The resulting material is soft, strong, and very absorbent. While microfiber towels are extremely useful for cleaning, drying, and polishing your vehicle, it’s also important to take care of your microfiber towels properly to ensure that they last for years to come.<\/p>\n

Keep it simple.<\/h2>\n

A great thing about the modern marvel known as microfiber is that it is very easy to take care of. So easy, in fact, that one can easily make the mistake of complicating microfiber maintenance. When it comes to taking care of microfiber, the key thing to remember is simplicity. Cleaning microfiber doesn’t require bleach, heat, or fabric softener. In fact, applying any of these three elements to your microfiber towels may ruin them. All that’s needed is water and some detergent. You can hand wash your towels, or you can simply throw them into the laundry machine.<\/p>\n
