Wash microfibre car towels separately from cotton and other lint-producing fabrics. Use a mild liquid detergent, no fabric softener or bleach, and cool or warm water. Air dry where practical or tumble dry on low heat.
Before first use
Wash new microfibre separately before use to remove loose fibres and any residue from manufacturing or packaging.
Washing microfibre towels
- Separate microfibre from cotton and lint-producing fabrics.
- Use a mild liquid detergent.
- Do not use fabric softener.
- Avoid bleach and heavy fragrance additives.
- Use a cool or warm cycle rather than excessive heat.
Drying microfibre towels
Air dry where practical. If you use a tumble dryer, choose low heat and avoid dryer sheets or fabric softener products. High heat can damage synthetic fibres over time.
Keep jobs separate
Do not mix a clean paintwork drying towel with a towel used on dirty lower panels, wheels or greasy areas. The Luxe Dry system deliberately separates full-size drying, lower-panel drying and interior/glass work so each towel can be cared for according to its job.
Microfibre washing questions
Can you wash microfibre car towels in a washing machine?
Yes. Wash microfibre separately from cotton and lint-producing fabrics using a mild liquid detergent and no fabric softener.
What temperature should you wash microfibre towels at?
Use a cool or warm wash rather than excessive heat. Follow the towel manufacturer’s care instructions when available.
Can you use fabric softener on microfibre towels?
Avoid fabric softener. It can coat the fibres and reduce the towel’s ability to interact with water and surfaces as intended.
Can microfibre towels go in a tumble dryer?
They can be tumble dried on low heat if the care instructions permit it. Excessive heat can damage synthetic fibres over time.
