Junkman's "How to Care for Your Microfiber Towels"

In this video, I discuss the proper care of your microfiber towels. I include tips that you will only hear in a Junkman video and I also dispel one of the myths that accompanies microfiber towel care.

One thing that I forgot to mention in the video is how to take care of any serious stains that may end up on your towels. You can use a all purpose cleaner (like Formula 409) to remove your more serious stains if you encounter that situation. Simply squirt the stain (don't go crazy with the squirting), and allow it to sit a few minutes before washing. That should remove the stain if you address it soon enough. You don't need any kind of special stain removing detergent and your choice of APC can be used in other areas of your car. That kills two birds with one stone.

It's awesome that you're on here!
I've been watching your videos over and over for a few months now, they're all very informative and gives me the confidence to jump into detailing.

Can't wait to start on this new hobby.

Nice video Junkman. Couldn't agree with you more on not wiping on a dirty car. Most of my towels stay clean through endless by ensuring the area I'm working on is always clean as can be.

That's the way everyone should work.
