Part of the Thermostar range of accessories are special microfiber cloths which can be used to wipe up loosened dirt or to polish surfaces. But what’s the difference between these and the ones you can get at the discounter? The answer is simple: the quality.
Strands of homogenous polymers are usually used for the production of microfiber – whether it’s high-quality or cheap. The way these are processed is the deciding factor for the performance of the finished cloth: The basic fibers are split apart. The more finely split the individual fibers are, the more absorbent and soft they become. The latter is particularly important for the protection of delicate surfaces and the prevention of microscopic scratches. Using lesser quality clothes, high-gloss surfaces like piano lacquer or the casings of modern TVs can suffer quickly.
A tip: Microfiber cloths can be machine washed at up to 60°C, if absolutely necessary even at 90°C every once in a while. But make sure to NEVER use fabric softener as it coats the fibers with a layer of grease which decreases absorbency.
