This "As Seen on TV" cloth features a needle-punched non-woven design rather than a traditional knit. This technical textile is intended for "damp-only" use, creating a microscopic film of water that evaporates to leave surfaces clear. Specifications show a material density of approximately 200-250 GSM, which supports high capillary action for spreading moisture evenly without the bulk of a standard bath or kitchen towel.
The flat-pressed fiber orientation is a deliberate engineering choice to help prevent the "fuzzing" or linting that occurs with looped fibers. Because it does not have the "hooks" found in plush microfiber, it is less likely to trap and drag debris across delicate surfaces, though regular rinsing is still necessary to keep the surface clean during use.
User data suggests that these cloths require a warm-water rinse before their first use to remove factory sizing agents. It is also important to avoid fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and interfere with the cloth's ability to pull moisture away from surfaces.
Usage and Maintenance Realities
While these cloths are highly resistant to tearing, they are not designed for soaking up large spills. Their primary function is polishing and finishing high-gloss surfaces. To maintain the fiber integrity, air drying or low-heat drying is recommended to prevent the material from stiffening.
- Validated for use with plain water, reducing the need for chemical sprays.
- Non-woven structure is specifically designed to be lint-free.
- Six-pack configuration offers a practical rotation for household chores.
For those who need a similar non-linting performance in a larger 12-pack for high-volume tasks, the MagicFiber cleaning cloths provide an excellent bulk option.
