Microfiber cloths are amazing multi-purpose housekeeping tools that are especially handy for dusting and removing grime. However, even these cleaners have to be cleaned at some time. After all, if you never wash your microfiber cloth, you’re just smearing dirt and gunk all over your home and its surfaces.

So what do you do when the washer needs a good washing? Learn how to clean microfiber cloths so that they can do their job properly and last longer. There are a couple of different methods you can use for microfiber cloth cleaning.

(1)  The washing machine:
Because Microfiber Cloths can absorb large amounts of dust, hair, clutter, etc., so they should be washed first by water. Then put them into laundry using warm water, and add a gentle liquid detergent. Afterwards, place the cloths in the dryer on low heat with no dryer sheet. Check back in a few minutes as it takes very little time for microfiber to dry. At last you can get a nearly complete new one.
There are a few rules of thumb you should follow if you use the washing machine to clean your cloths. For starters, you should never use powdered detergents, fabric softener or bleach for microfiber cloth cleaning, nor should you wash your cloths in hot water. You should also never clean microfiber with cotton, as even the most miniscule lint particles can clog the fibers of your cloth, rendering it useless.

(2)  The dishwasher:
You can wash your microfiber cloth along with your dinner dishes. For the best results, lay your cloth flat on the top rack of the dishwasher. Once the cleaning cycle has run its course, hang your microfiber over your kitchen faucet until it’s dry.

(3) The microwave:
Microfiber cloth cleaning can take place in the microwave as long as your cloth isn’t heavily soiled. Simply dampen your cloth and microwave it for 60 seconds. Let the cloth cool before removing it. Once the cloth is dry, it’s ready to clean again.
