Washing Meguairs microfibre mitt & drying towel

Can I throw the Meguairs microfibre mitt, drying towel and microfibre cloth all together in the same washing cycle?

Maybe a bit naive, but I didn't want to do something silly. The microfibre cloth was sued for the wheels.

And air dry them, not tumble drier.

Thanks for the tip. I would've tumble dryed them on a low setting as the instructions suggests you can :?

I won't now! Cheers :thumbsup:

This point actually raises something else. Make sure it's a hot wash, as you do not want hydrophobic waxes and polishing oils clogging up your pipes!

Meguairs recommend 90F which I think is just above 30c. That doesn't feel hot enough then!

Crank the machine up to 60c?

Ive washed my Meguairs mitt and drying cloth numerous times. Other than the mitt becoming slightly less white they're both as good as new really. I chuck in microfiber cloths at the same time. All good.
