FAQs
What are microfiber cloths good for?
Microfiber cleaning cloths are lean, mean cleaning machines that are also incredibly versatile. Use them on everything from appliances, porcelain fixtures, glass, countertops, furniture, floors and painted surfaces like walls and cabinets. Made of super-thin polyester threads that trap a considerable amount of liquid, dirt, dust and grime, they dry quickly to produce a lint-, scratch- and streak-free clean. Safely use them on just about anything—with or without cleansers and either wet or dry.
How do you wash microfiber cloths?
Microfiber cleaning cloths can be reused hundreds of times, making them a money-saving, sustainable product. Just pop them in the washing machine—depending on the quality of the fibers these cloths last an average of two years before needing to be replaced.
Which side of the microfiber cloth should you use?
Some of the best cleaning cloths come with a rough and smooth side. For these dual-sided cleaners, use the textured side to scrub off or wipe messes away and the softer side to buff and shine surfaces.
