Default Microfibre cloths?

Can microfibre polishing cloths be washed and re-used?

Or should they be discarded once soiled and new ones bought?

Don't know what others do or whether it's pc but I wash and re-use them several times.

Just don't use any fabric softener & they'll be fine.

I've washed & re-used mine several times over.

If you use any softener, they're useless !!

If used with wax a lot they should be soaked in a white vinegar solution to remove the wax and revitalizes them, then washed in a non softening detergent
