I know that you recommended Griots Sheepskin Mitt and with that I purchased one. Seems like it will be an awesome wash mitt! Is it safe to machine wash or should it be washed out by hand only?

I wash mine in the gentle cycle with Woolite, and then hang it to air dry. It still looks like new.

Thanks! I need to pick up a bottle of Woolite for washing everything then.

Should microfiber towels be washed on gentle cycle too?

It would probably be a good idea to use the gentle cycle, but I've been using the regular cycle lately, and it doesn't seem to be harming the towels. I think what really harms the towels is high heat in the dryer.

BTW, how do you like that mitt? And what soap are you using?

Well I haven't got a chance to wash my truck yet but I'm hoping to do all that this weekend. I think the mitt is gonna do great! I'll be using PS21 shampoo, the stuff smells good enuff to eat.

Yeah, That's good stuff. But compared to some car soaps, it doesn't suds up a whole bunch, but don't worry, it's still doing its job, which is cleaning and adding lubrication to the washing process. If you have soft water it will make more suds.
