FAQs

Can I use these cloths with cleaning sprays?

Yes, you can use them with cleaning sprays. However, their microfibre design is highly effective at cleaning with just water, reducing the need for chemical solutions.

How often should I wash the cloths?

Washing frequency depends on usage. For heavily soiled tasks or commercial use, wash after each significant use. For light household dusting, they can be used multiple times before washing.

What is the benefit of the mixed-colour system?

The mixed-colour system allows you to assign specific colours to different areas or tasks (e.g., blue for glass, red for bathrooms) to prevent cross-contamination of germs and dirt between zones.

Are these cloths suitable for dusting electronics?

Yes, their fine microfibres are excellent for gently removing dust from electronic screens and surfaces without scratching or leaving lint.

How many times can these cloths be washed?

These cloths are designed to be durable and can withstand hundreds of machine washes while maintaining their effectiveness and absorbency.

Can I dry these cloths in a dryer?

Yes, you can tumble dry them on a low heat setting. Avoid high heat, as it can damage the microfibre. Air drying is also an excellent option.

What makes microfibre different from cotton cloths?

Microfibre cloths are made from synthetic fibres that are much finer than cotton, allowing them to trap dirt, dust, and bacteria more effectively and absorb more liquid, while leaving fewer streaks.

Troubleshooting

Cloths leaving streaks or lint.

Ensure cloths are washed before first use. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softener. Make sure the surface is not overly wet, or use a separate dry cloth to buff for a final polish.

Reduced absorbency after multiple washes.

Check that fabric softener or bleach has not been used, as these can damage microfibre. Wash with a dedicated microfibre detergent if possible, or a small amount of regular detergent without additives. Ensure cloths are not overloaded in the washing machine.

Colour transfer from one cloth to another.

Wash coloured cloths separately for the first few washes, especially the darker colours, to ensure any excess dye is removed. This is more common with new cloths.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These cloths are ready to use straight from the packaging. For optimal performance, it is recommended to wash them before the first use to remove any manufacturing residue.

Compatibility: Microfibre cloths are compatible with most standard cleaning solutions. However, they are highly effective with just water, reducing the need for chemical cleaners. They are suitable for use on a wide variety of surfaces including glass, mirrors, stainless steel, countertops, tile, wood (sealed), and car interiors.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash separately or with like colours in cold or warm water (max 60°C / 140°F).
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, as these can degrade the microfibre material and reduce its effectiveness.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not iron.
  4. Avoid Abrasives: Do not use on sharp objects or extremely rough surfaces that could snag or tear the fabric.
