Wash only with other MFs.  Use only liquid detergent.  Some people use different methods.  There's no real right way but there are wrong was.  I use an MF Rejuvinator from Chemical Guys with a standard liquid laundry detergent.  No fabric softener.  I'm sure some others will jump in and give their way of doing things.  This way works great for me.  They come out clean and soft.

I always wash my microfiber in hot water using microrestore. I dry on hot temps as well. Always seems to work well for me. Like ESF said, wash only mf together, use liquid detergents, no bleach or fabric softeners, etc.

Semi off topic...but let's say someone decided to "help" and do my laundry for me, and they washed my wax and polish removal microfibers with my drying microfibers. How the heck do I get the wax off of them? They are literally WORTHLESS now...it's like drying your car with saran wrap.   :wtf:

I place all my MF in the washer together, except for the really nasty, dirty ones, add some liquid detergent and one tablespoon of distilled white vinegar per MF, and wash with cold water. I do this twice and then hang them up to air dry. This process works for me so far.

Maybe try washing them a few times in a row with some Dawn and APC
