Thread: Bowling Towels - How Often to Clean Them?

  1. #1

    Default Bowling Towels - How Often to Clean Them?

    I feel dumb asking this, but clearly you can't just keep using a towel without cleaning it. How often do you guys clean it? I have a gray microfiber towel and I figured I could just wash it with my other lights when I do a load. Warm water. And then I think about how oil will be mixing with my clothes and that doesn't seem to good either.

    What do you guys do?

    I tend to clean my microfiber bowling towel when I clean my other microfiber towels from detailing cars. I use microfiber detergent, but I imagine you could just put it in the washer maybe every 2-3 months, depending on how bad it is.

    I usually do it every month. I wash them alone, with very hot water to get the oil out.

    I have enough towels that I wait until I have a bunch and then wash them all at once.

    I don't bother, towels are cheap enough, I just throw out my dirty towels after a little while.

    I wash them whenever I notice that they are very dirty. I'll do them all at one time. Since I have multiple towels, I use one till it's dirty and then move on to the next towel. I can usually make it through half a season before I wash them. If I do more bowling than just league play, I'll wash them a little bit more often.
