All cloths? Wax applicator cloth, wax buffing cloth, trim dressing cloth ... etc?

I found some of mine to be harden because of the liquid, so I wash it immediately.

Well, now still very much waiting for the MF cleaner to be cheaper though.... If got sudden discount, please share ya.

Best for fabric would be an extractor...pressurized steam/hot water extractor is even better. If you want to DIY - foaming carpet/fabric cleaner (those in spray can that doesn't 'wet' the fabric much), soft brush (like the shoe brush), wet/dry vacuum, cloths, sun (this few weeks would be a good time since the weather is very hot and dry).

thks. my guess is also hot water extractor is better. Steam seem to be easier to apply but the effectiveness is a doubt.

I meant steam extractor or hot water extractor. Steam alone can clean but it would just pushes the dirt/stain around or further into the fabric, so you'd need vacuum extraction to truly get the dirt/stain OUT.

The ones I regularly used are drying cloths only...and occasionally mf for applying spray waxes/sealants. But those used for buffing off polishes, waxes/sealants, etc. I don't leave them for too long. Applicator for dressing I use cheapo ones, never wash, if unusable then I just throw away or wash and use as rag. Most recently for dressings I kinda like using the Sonax Polishing (?) cloths....cut into smaller pieces...once used up throw away also....

That kind of stain & dirt....you'd need to do the whole shibam.....steam, spray cleaner, brush, extract, cleaner again, then extract again....

Actually, hot water extractor are quite common if you go to the more reputable detailers or the better equipped carpet (normal household) cleaning services. If you have the budget and looking for a steamer/extractor/vacuum, try google for 'Polti' (home/consumer) or IMEC has the commercial ones, just for info la.
