    • Worth it!
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Despite the ridiculous video review by ‘Jeremy’; microfiber towels are not ruined by washing them ‘even 1 time’ with regular detergent. Nor does microfiber get ‘crusty and hard’. I have microfiber (expensive plush) sheets, towels, blankets, rags, etc. I’ve washed them like regular laundry for years, including dryer sheets. I did not know this was a crime. They have lasted fine & remain soft. The reason I purchased this product, is after time, some of the lighter color microfiber towels are dull and have some areas of darker areas, likely from being tossed into the wash with darks. I started googling on how to get stains from microfiber towels, and this product popped up, and had great reviews. I first washed the worst of the microfiber towels, and in just 1 wash they look new again. I followed the directions on the bottle. This resulted in no more stains, no more dull colors. Seriously, they do feel better, and look better. I’ll be sorting laundry by fabric type, and stick with this product. Your results will likely be the same. ... show more

    • Better Results Than Regular Detergent
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Review Image by A. Hsiao A. Hsiao
I was in the market to look for some microfiber wash since using regular detergent appears to make my towels rougher and not as soft anymore after a few washes. This is when I discovered this Chemical Guys microfiber wash. I am almost done with the bottle after almost a whole year so I'm looking to buy more. I might buy the gallon one this time so I won't have to keep buying each year. Appearance: It is in a bottle kind of shaped like a water bottle but much sturdier. Even though it is a cleaning detergent the bottle looks nothing like a detergent bottle. I have uploaded a picture to show what it looks like. The color of the liquid is orange. It is quite orange when you use it which I think is actually a pro because you'll be able to see where the detergent hits when putting it on dirty microfiber towels. I was actually afraid the orange color was going to stain my towels but thankfully it didn't. Scent: The scent wasn't too harsh or overpowering which is exactly what I was looking for. I didn't want my towels to be smelling like flowers after it was coming out of the washer. It smells like soap but the scent is not too strong. Usually after washing my towels and taking it out of the washer, you cannot really smell the scent unless you get real close to the towel. I don't think a lot of people smell it that closely anyways. Efficiency: The most important part of this product is of course how well it washes the microfiber towels. I usually throw in 4 cap full of this product with around 10 microfiber towels after washing my car. I tried to product with and without soaking. Without soaking it, I sometimes still see some dirt on my microfiber towels so I started to soak it. I usually soak for 30 minutes before letting it cycle the wash. I would say 99% of the stains are moved so I'm happy with the results. What made this wash great is the fact that it actually makes the towel seem like new and fluffy. It doesn't damage the towels like regular detergent does. Overall, I think this product does a great job washing microfiber towels and I would recommend. ... show more

    • Works well to soften towels and remove dirt
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Item works well. At first I did not soak microfiber towels. Please separate heavy soiled from light soiled separate wash. Bucket hand washing. I found allowing product 24 hours removes grease and staining best. So use soaking method in garage or washing machine. If grease, pre spot w degreaser. I use Spray Nine, Mean Green, or Dawn Power Spray...let them break down grease, rinse, then add to other batch towels. ... show more

    • Wow…!!!

Review Image by MINI R58S MINI R58S
I bought a 24 pack of the yellow Chemical Guys microfiber towels on sale around Black Friday and over the following six weeks I used half of them to clean my car. Being that I love these towels and even on sale they are rather expensive, I wanted to make sure I took good care of them in the wash. I decided to give this product a shot even though at $10 for 16 ounces it’s not cheap. I am sooo glad I did!! Out of twelve towels, eleven of them came out perfectly clean and extremely fluffy. One towel had a very small stain on it that still remained but was otherwise perfect. I must note that I only used these towels to waterless wash and dry the car with Aero Wash & Wax All and Rain-X glass cleaner, sometimes while the car was wet and sometimes not. The last two towels I used while the car was 2/3rds covered in salt and dirt!! I did not use the towels on the wheels or tires which likely would have marked them much more severely, and if you are using nice towels on your car I recommend you avoid using them on these places as well! Immediately after this load I washed a batch of older, thinner, cheaper towels that were already stained. I did not have high hopes for these and while they were “clean” after the wash, the stains remained. I think it is safe to assume that if your towels are stained after a previous wash they will remain so even after using this product. But if your towels were pristine just before use, were not used on brake dust or grease, and you wash them with this product, they will likely again be so after the wash based on my experience. This product could do just as well removing grease and brake dust from the towels, but as of now I personally do not know if that is true. In any case I am very pleased with the performance of this detergent and will be buying the gallon size next time, which is a much better value!! ... show more
