Pro-tip: buy differently-colored towels for different specific job/applications. This makes the sorting process super easy, and keeps you from accidentally mixing things like coating applicators or wheel cleaning towels with your interior finishing or glass towels. I choose colors based on the expected level of soiling it'll get during the process: black for wheels, grey for exterior body and door jambs, white for interior trim, brown for leather, and a different color (yellow in my case, based on my company's marketing palette) for finish application like when using silica-based coatings. 👍 Great products and informative videos, as always!

I'm surprised the paper towel companies haven't done something to hurt the micro-fiber towel industry. For home use in the kitchen, I tested using micro-fiber towels instead of 'a leading brand' of paper towels and now I've switched to all micro-fiber towels. They work a LOT better than any paper towel at spills and they really do pick up crumbs like they're magnetic or something. Now I know how to make them work even better and last longer.

Great video as I grew up in the Dalton, GA area. My family owned a small private carpet company called Diamond carpets so I understand manufacturing. Tufting sucks and was a punishment for making bad grades. Those tufters use to be very difficult to set up for patterns before computers came along. The round frisbee style cardboard on the edges of the yarn were fun to use for trying to see who could hit the lamp fixture or try and hang on the racking system. One tip I can pass along is to dry your towels on the line or air dry setting. All of your clothes will be softer but it takes a lot longer. TRC is my preferred source for buying microfiber towels as they do solid work with high quality yarn.

I had done it wrong and had those melted fibers from a hot dryer. I had also heard to never wash or dry with other towels, which I had. They get full of lint and hair doing that. It was a frustration to know there had to be a way to successfully keep them longer than one use and not find the answer. Until now. Thank you! I'm going to be ordering that special cleaner, too.

Unless I have hundreds of dollars worth of towels. I'm going to be doing an awful lot of little loads which is going to cost me a ton of money in water. Don't you think this is a bit ridiculous?

That means I'll be mixing soaps for the next load.
@zazzue5131Ай бұрын
If you don't have a huge amount of towels to wash, look at buying a twin tub washing machine. With a twin tub you can wash smaller amounts and soak for how long you want or wash how long you want. The big plus is that when you put them in the spin 'dryer' the towels will come out almost dry and you can either hang them up or put in the dryer on low for a few minutes. And, they don't cost an arm and a leg, and come in various sizes. When shopping for one, if it says it's a 17.6 lb washer, it really means that you can wash 11 lbs at one time and spin 6.6 lbs at one time. They are portable, so if you have electricity and water at a job, you can clean your towels right there.

Very interesting video. I looked up the Rags-to-Riches detergent and at about forty bucks for a gallon before whatever shipping cost it is fairly expensive for a regular guy, so I'll probably stay with regular detergent. Also on the cheap side, I really like Harbor Freight's edgeless microfibers which are often on sale for four or five bucks for a twelve pack, and also their drying towels which were on sale recently for four bucks each. Also their glass cleaning towels are just fine. I do like the idea of prewashing the towels, that sounds like a winner. I drive regular cars and just like to keep them reasonably clean and protected without too much trouble so I aim for 80-90% quality in products and processes at a fraction the price and effort and call it good. I will say the existence of microfibers themselves has changed everything, a fraction the effort to use compared to anything from the beforetimes.

I would say the size of the load has so many variables (tub size, towel size, HE vs regular agitator washer, commercial washer, etc.), that it can’t really be determined by someone else who doesn’t know your situation. The most important thing is that anything in a washer can move freely during the cycles so items aren’t crowded with other items. The water/detergent need to circulate around the items freely. Overloading your washer will also wear it out more easily. 😊

To all the guitar players watching! If you own a guitar that has a Nitro cellulose finish also known as lacquer. Do not use microfiber products to wipe, polish or store a notro cellulose finished guitar. It will scratch the finish badly. I tested this on one of my personal guitars with a lacquer finish, it did scratch the finish considerably. I could not repair the scratches completely for rear of causing further damage.

What they do is similar to using 800 grit sand paper. Leaves scratches in the direction of use and cause a hazy mess. I tried on my Les Paul Studio in the cut away area, even using the correct restoring polishes I could not fully remove the directional scratches. I stopped before I caused any more damage and use it now to show my clients why they should not use microfiber on a lacquer finish. This would apply to any lacquer finish, violin, furniture, automobile etc. On a side note with lacquer finishes, do not leave a clip on tuner on a lacquer finish for any length of time, it will turn the lacquer into jello. Lacquer never fully cures and contact with any rubber or oil based products will damage the finish.

What about removing debris from the towel? I have done the tweeter plucking which isn't the most fun but I can do it while watching TV. I have one of those electric lint brushes that save a bit off. Sure these towels may not be used for pain and maybe move down to window or wheel cleaning. I don't think it will be that bad but just curious on others thoughts.

You can absolutely do that if you have the patience!

@@theragcompany thanks i figurred the electirc lint shaver/remover would be ok just wanted other opinons. Having a bit of OCD and putting on a show I don't have to watch helps kill time plucking out the bug bits of debris 😅.

I watched the whole video only to find out that what wash degrees is recommended. I am told 140 is too hot, then what isn’t?

I just wash them with my other stuff and then air dry them. Seems to work fine.

I am a bit confused about the heat. P&S has a video, where they says to use hot tap water for the pre-soak. Do you recommend this as well ?

Thank you for your order! Once the R2R has completely thawed out and is still in a liquid form and hasn't jellified you are good to use it, however if it is jellified to the point where you are uncomfortable using it feel free to reach out to us to get a replacement.

Do you prep the washer before washing MF towels? I wash everything from clothes to bedding to dog beds and rugs in my washer, I cant imagine thats good to then throw these MF towels in without a cleaning? I air dry only because Im scared what the dryer lint from all that will do to the towels!

What about Lysol Laundry Sanitizer?? You place it where the fabric softener goes but it’s NOT a fabric softener. Can you add the sanitizer to the Rags To Riches detergent?
@theragcompany5 ай бұрын
We personally have not tested this process. It could work, but it may be worth trying a small test batch first!

@@theragcompany thank you. I have already used it on a medium load with just the sanitizer and the Rags to Riches detergent. The microfiber towels seemed to have come out okay. That was using a low heat on the dryer for about an hour.

is soaking towels in a bucket of rinseless wash and then wringing them out and air drying insufficient for cleaning microfiber towels?
@theragcompany10 ай бұрын
It can be done in a pinch but it is not recommended to fully clean the Microfiber. We would recommend substituting Rags to Riches as the cleaner.
