What to do with Wet, Used Microfiber Towels?

[derass]

I searched and couldn't find an answer. After ringing them out, what should I be doing next? Throw them directly into the wash? I'd like to accumulate a few towels first so that I'm not running the washer and dryer nearly empty. Mind you, I'm using cheap towels at this point, but I have a few Corba towels on the way and would like to know how to take care of them once they show up. Thanks!

Rinse off, air dry and set aside until you have enough you feel is justified to machine wash

I make it a point to use a lot of towels each session so I have enough to do a load of laundry. Don't like products and chemicals sitting in towels

I've let them sit for two weeks on a concrete floor while staying wet and never had an issue.

Try that down here in Florida LOL.

OK. I'll come to your house while you come to mine in Cleveland Ohio. Say, two weeks, how's that sound? I'll even throw in Indians tickets.

That's a hell of an offer LOL. Thanks brother hehehehehe. We can go to a Rays Indians game, we're both 500 teams right now.

I'll have the stinky molded towels waiting for you to wash. Cockroaches, silver fish and who knows, maybe even a scorpion living in them.

I was in till you said scorpions.

I typically throw them in small bucket of water with an oz of Micro Restore - I continue to add to the pile until I get enough for a load of towels & pads

Then there's always these guys, yeah that's my back porch.

Remind me to tell you the story about the water moccassin.

Do you bother hanging them up?

So the towels sit in the bucket with water until you've collected enough?

Not the kind of VIPER I want at my house.

This is what my Grit Guard is good for.
I keep a bucket with Grit Guard in the backyard and toss dirty rinseless towels into it and loosely cover it with a lid until it's time to do a reasonable load in the washer.

And before I wash them I add an ounce or two of car wash to that bucket and do a quik hand pre wash to the towels in that bucket with the Grit Guard. IMO those are the top 2 things the Grit Guard is good for. [the other thing it's good for is to wash my pads]

I toss my used towels in a bucket and wash them when I need to use the towels that are in there

My neighbors wouldn't see the humor in hearing gunshots (but they probably wouldn't be surprised) :doh:

How do you wash your pads with it?

I think he failed to mention the offer is only any day during the month of January.

I keep my interior and exterior towels separate, as I am sure most of us do. I only work on the weekends so I usually end up with enough of each to do a full load following the weekend.

Exactly what I do. Once dry I just pile them up in a bin until I have enough for a load of towels.

The solution doesn't spoil/sour?

I currently do this but wonder if it helps the stains set faster?
