Restoring microfiber after being washed with cotton rags

[phrider]

Oops. The cleaning lady washed my collection of dirty microfiber towels with her cotten cleaning rags. I caught the error before the microfibers had gone in the dryer -- so I dried the microfiber towels separately, cleaning the lint trap several times in the process.



1. Is that good enough?



2. Should I rewash and redry the MF towels as well?



3. Or is it toss and buy new time?

How much cotton fibre is clinging to the MF towels? That's the question.



(I think most of it will be liberated with successive washes. I wouldn't get too tensed up over it.)

After a couple dry cycles, none is visible. And the dryer lint trap had less and less each dry cycle.

I've heard that vinegar can bring them back to original feel after they've been dried out and almost beat to death. Might want to give that a shot.

^Boiling them helps also.
