Help! Ruined microfiber cloths

[PrinzessinCressida]

by inadvertently adding conditioner to the wash. Now they're all sticky and don't wipe properly. The one that used to clean mirrors brilliantly leaves a residue. Gutted.

Is there a way of fixing them? Should I buy new cloths? In researching potential sizes I've seen microfibre is environmentally unsound. Are there better types that do the job as well? Thanks.

Just chuck them in a hot wash with normal washing powder/liquid. That should remove any residue

Strip wash them in white vinegar and hang out in the rain.

Thank you very much.

You are right that they are not great for the environment. I have some and feel guilty using them as they shed tiny bits of plastic.
