How do I wash and dry Ultra Pro Bathroom Mitt after cleaning?Updated 3 days ago

Rinse the mitt under warm water after every clean to flush out soap scum and cleaner residue, then squeeze gently rather than wring, since twisting damages the yarn. For a machine wash, run a cool cycle with a mild liquid detergent free of dyes, fragrances, bleach and softeners. Wash with non-linting items only and never with cotton, because cotton sheds fibres that clog the microfibre. Wash darks separately to reduce dye transfer onto the mitt.

Air-drying is preferred. Squeeze out the excess moisture, then lay the mitt flat on a rack or hang it by the cuff loop somewhere ventilated, not a damp cupboard. Tumble drying on a low setting is acceptable now and then when air-drying is not practical, but it should not be your default, because high heat damages the yarn and shortens the mitt’s life. Never iron it.

Avoid chlorine bleach, fabric softener, which clogs the microfibre and reduces performance, high-heat tumble drying, and ironing. Do not wash the mitt with cotton or other linting fabrics, and keep it away from rough items like zips and hook-and-loop fasteners that could snag the loops. Do not wring it dry, because twisting damages the yarn.

Odour almost always traces back to damp storage rather than the wash itself. Rinse thoroughly after every use so no cleaner residue is left behind, wash on a cool cycle with a mild detergent, then let the mitt dry completely before you put it away. Hang it somewhere ventilated rather than folding it into a closed cupboard while it is still damp.
