a note to everyone, do not soak your MF towels in really hot water, warm water will do, the kind of heat when soaking on a hot spring will do but nothing hotter, take note MF towels are made of nylon and basically plastic like materials that are not very well tailored for high heat temperatures, i've seen some MF's used in engine detailing that actually end up becoming sharp because some of the MF's melted due to the very high temperature of the engine, this is applicable to all MF towels, so don't put warm water straight out of the kettle or thermose straight to the MF, another thing that i would recommend is have a bucket of soap water ready once you're done waxing or using the MF towel, this way the wax and polish residues don't really get a chance to dry up and clog the fibers, this is one key to keep your MF's in good condition, never let the wax and polish on the Mf dry for a long time always have a soap water solution and soak it, if you don't have time to wash it after you could just leave it in the bucket and since its not cotton it won't really deteriorate the quality of the MF
