Washing polishing cloths
« on: 16 April 2011, 23:16 »
Apologies if this is a daft question but what's the best way to clean polishing cloths? I have a few that are full of dried polish and am wondering if they can be saved. Just rinse in warm water with a bit of soap? Thought about chucking them in the washing machine but have a feeling everything will stink of Autoglym afterwards.

Thanks  :smiley:

Are microfibres statically charged?

can this be lost through washing? If so how can you get it back?
