Washing Microfibers in a High Effeciency Washer

[Bunky]

I noticed the MF Restore really foams up, so I use no more than 1/2 ounce. Even less for small loads. That's where the rinse & spin feature comes in handy if not all of the MF Restore got rinsed out.

If you mean, Micro Restore, it does not seem to suds much for me and I use 2 ounces or more. I have soft water.

To bring MF back to life when they stop absorbing water or don't feel as soft as they used to, I do a hot quick wash and extra rinse with 1/2 cup vinegar in the soap bin, and another hot quick wash and extra rinse with 1/4 cup baking soda.

If you had not said you only use 1/2 ounce, I would suspect that your towels are saturated with soap not wax.

It could be soap but I noticed more suds when using micro restore than I did when using Tide.

When Meguiar's upgraded the classroom to a tiny room to a huge room they installed a brand new washer and dryer primarily washing microfiber towels for our classes there and I don't remember any problems switching over from a top-load washer to the new high efficiency model and we used it a LOT.

Somewhere on MOL I took some pictures of the new system... not sure what I would use for a key search word to find them though...

Mike: I have a pic of my HE (High-Intensity Elbowgrease) washer shown here. (LOL) Seriously, our next laundry combo will be the "new" style HE and the info on this thread will be very useful.

My grandparents had a ringer type washer. I remember it well.
