Microfibre cloths are a versatile and effective cleaning tool that can be used to clean a variety of surfaces in your home. They are made of tiny fibres that are much finer than cotton or other fabrics, which gives them a number of advantages over traditional cleaning cloths.

Benefits of Microfibre Cloths

  • Microfibre cloths can trap dirt, dust, and other particles much more effectively than regular cloths.
  • They are gentle on surfaces, so they can be used to clean delicate items such as porcelain or screens and monitors without scratching them.
  • They are reusable, so you can save money on paper towels and other disposable cleaning products.
  • They are easy to care for and can be machine washed and dried.

How to Use Microfibre Cloths

  • To get the most out of your microfibre cloth, start by applying the dry cloth to a surface to remove any loose dirt or dust particles.
  • For surfaces that need scrubbing, dampen the microfibre cloth with water and a small amount of mild detergent if necessary. Then wring out the cloth until it is damp rather than dripping wet and wipe the surface in a circular motion.
  • Rinse the cloth frequently to remove dirt and debris.

How to Care for Microfibre Cloths

In an ideal world, you would wash your microfibre cloths in a mild detergent and cold water, then air dry them. But we appreciate these are just as likely to be tossed in the laundry and they’ll come up good through the washing machine and tumble dryer (at the cost of a slightly diminished life span).

Microfibre cloths are a great addition to your cleaning cupboard and will help to keep your home clean and tidy. Purchase a set of microfibre cloths from the Living Clean shop today and see the difference they can make!
