Microfiber products differ: dusting and polishing cloths may have distinct care limits. This general routine uses E-Cloth instructions as a reference, not a universal temperature rule. Keep toilet cloths separate from cloths used around food.

1. Check the product care label. General-purpose and dusting microfiber cloths may have different temperature limits.
2. Rinse thoroughly after use, wring gently and spread out to dry. Never leave wet cloths sealed in a pile.
3. Sort used cloths by cleaning task. Wash new colored cloths separately at first in case of color transfer.
4. Wash with a little ordinary detergent at the temperature allowed by the label. E-Cloth US mentions up to 140°F/60°C for some cloths, not for all microfiber.
5. Avoid fabric softener and dryer sheets; residue can reduce cleaning performance. E-Cloth also advises against bleach.
6. Tumble-dry only if approved for the product, otherwise air-dry fully. Follow special cold-wash and air-dry instructions for dusting products.
