One of the substantial benefits to microfiber is its long lifespan: manufacturers indicate that cloths and pads can be machine washed and reused between 400 and 500 times. We clean microfiber to ensure that it is effective. We check the cloths frequently – if they appear dirty or begin to streak, we stop using them and have them cleaned. Cleaning microfiber isn’t much different than washing other materials. We use these simple washing instructions to keep your microfiber cloths and pads at their best.
