This is a message I got on my web site I think everyone will benefit from.
Gary, My PT is two years old and I use liquid Polish/wax combo about once every five weeks. In between, on week-ends, I use Spray and Shine for that "gloss look" after washing with Armorall car wash.( I live in Michigan,six months of snow,ice and then sand for the other six months.) My biggest problem is towels. I use a new black (My car is black) cotton bath towel every time I polish/wax and it is caked full of polish/wax/dirt. Its only good for one time. It does'nt even come out in the wash machine. Are the micro fiber towels only good for one use. If so, how do you get them clean. Does it cost you $5. for a towel every time you clean your car also? Would like to try the Sealant so I would'nt have to clean it so often. What do you think? I can see why my clinics are so popular because this post is what most people think about car care. If you are using a polish/wax in one step, you are looking for trouble. You need to clean first, then follow up with polish sealing. If the pad/towel is getting dirty when removing product, you did NOT prep properly. (read my tips on clay bar on my web site) Using terri towels will scratch your finish. Micro fiber can be used over and over again with proper care. Mine have been tested for over 500 washes and still look like new. MF is the softest most absorbent cloth around. Use them and you will enter the spoiled Zone, and never use anything else Gary |

How do you recommend washing micro fiber towels Gary?

Here are some options. You wash always wash by hand, using NO fabric softener. LIght soap, like you would wash a fine garment. You can wash with your regular wash towels also. warm wash/ cold rinse. low heat dry, and air dry. Gary
