Micro fiber towel

Was wondering if anybody washes these towels. I use them for cleaning with totally awesome, applying arospace 303 and for removing wax and polish.
In the past I couldn't tell what I had already used it on. So I applied 303 to Black plastic. It had already been used to remove wax. That didn't do the black plastic any good as it turned different shades of ugly blue.
I just washed them and hope to use them wherever and keep track of them in ziplock bags. What do you think

I wash mine in woolite, then dry. I wash all the microfibers separately, not mixing any other items with them. I usually do an extra rinse in the cycle as well.

I use good MF towels all the time. Wash them when dirty but I do keep the ones for wax removal separated and use them only for that purpose. When I wash them it is in hot water and I never use fabric softener on towels because I feel it takes away from the ability to absorb as good as possible.

It's either Monaco or Newmar that advises not to use microfiber towels on their paint, it leaves marks.

Where would I find the no issues at WalMart or do I have to order it online?

Actually Tiffin also told us not to use it on our new coach.
