question about microfiber towels

I recently bought some microfiber towels and they work well. Here's the question: I washed them, putting in a lil vinegar in the rinse and at the same time I was raking leaves all day and my hands are lil rough.....and now, when I pick up the mirofiber, it sticks to my hands like velcro and feels tacky...has anyone else had this problem with microfiber or did my washing it ruin it...very strange

It's not a problem, but a feature.... it's still very soft, but, that grabbing that you feal is what makes microfibers so great at picking up dust and stuff.

Fells crappy on the hands, but great on the car..

Consider it an added feature...

It keeps you from dropping the cloth onto the ground and having to find another.
