Microfiber towels
Do you guys wash them in the laundry, by themselves, with soap, without soap or just throw them away and use a new one?

I throw them in the laundry with a mild liquid soap, but, no fabric softener, and only use them on my car.

^ agreed, and better to air dry, but low heat/tumble dry will also suffice

Same. Throw all my car shit together when washing. I go through about 30 little towels when I detail my car completely haha.

I don't use Microfiber towels (http://www.dftowel.com) on my car. But, I do use them to clean my wheels and all of my towels get washed in liquid detergent and are dried by themselves without any fabric softener or sheets. My DFtowels are washed alone and are both dried on gentle heat.

Lifts any wax/polish/glaze leftover in the towels.

It also removes odors. Can act as a fabric softener without the residue and removes certain stains and repels lint

The vinegar thing's a good idea. I'm gonna do that the next time I wash them towels (which will probably be tomorrow).
