Title: dont boil your stripwashers!!!!
Post by: dazmond on February 11, 2011, 01:07:17 pm

got a new washing machine the other week and as i was washing sill cloths,scrims and microfibres i thought id bung in a couple of washers sleeves.nowt wrong with that as ive done it hundreds of times over the years with no problems.but i decided to put them on a BOIL WASH!! :o :o ;D ;D

cloths have come out great!the stripwashers are in the bin!!theyve lost all their absorbency and are knackered!


thankfully ive got another 5 sleeves!2 unger monsoons/2 normal unger white ones and a pulex microtiger.


wont be doing that again!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

I normally clean microfibre sleeves and clothes at 60 degrees, I think that is the advised temp.  ;D

Ettore porcupine at 90c wash everytime, still going strong after 52 washes+.

Isn't boilwash actually 90c? That's the highest mine goes up anyway.
