Picked up some BOGO Blackfire Microfiber cleaner recently.

I read you use 1-2 oz for a smaller load. Which is what I usually have.

Do you all use it for every microfiber wash? Or do you use the Microfiber cleaner every once in a while and then use Woolite or similar regularly?

I normally wash my microfibers about once a week during the spring/summer so I can see using a lot of this stuff.

Can't wait to give the stuff a try tonight :dblthumb2:
 
I use it for every wash and must admit I didn't really think I'd see much difference between MF-specific stuff and Tide, for example. I have the BF that is / was on bogo too and this stuff works great.

Definitely could get a bit pricey but to me it's worth it!

How much do you use for each load?
 
I use BF micro wash every time. Didn't bother with the BOGO and went straight to the gallon. Much better deal when you calculate how much an ounce is.
 
I have the CG Microfiber detergent... I use it every wash. Towels are much softer than using standard detergents.
 
How do you guys remove stains that stick around after the towels have been washed in MF detergent? Any secrets?

I have a few stained towels but noticed the fibers are still soft. I just let them be and use them as wheel towels.

This is true in a lot of cases. :-)

My good towels don't get stained. If a towel is stained it gets bumped down a notch, for more general use instead of paint.
 
I wash towels in two loads with a microfiber wash every time - towels that were used for washing and drying and towels used for wax/qd/sealant. I follow the wash with vinegar added to an extra rinse cycle. Wheel towels and lessor quality or stained towels just get tide detergent.
 
I think the MF washes are a waste. They work but they work the same as All Free and Clear. So I'm done buying them and trying them. Just hype IME. Add some vinegar to the fabric softener dispenser and you towels will come out great everytime.
 
When buying MF detergent, always buy the gallon. You'll always use anyway. I use Griot's. It works pretty good.
 
I've used the CG cleaner with good results in the past. Recently I picked up some liquid Charlie's soap. It works well so far, but we'll see how it fares in the long run.
 
Recently, I've started using Micro-Restore for my mf's with a vinegar rinse. I really didn't believe there was much difference from using something like Tide. I've now changed my mind, since I've been using a mf specific soap, I get most to all of any stains out of whatever was on the mf's and they are also softer. Sounds like a laundry detergent commercial, where's my check! LOL. I agree with what's been said, I also separate out the nasty mf's for a different load.
