Microfiber towels

What's the best way to dry your microfiber towels? In the dryer, or let them air dry?

After using them with a chemical touching them or after washing them?

I wash mine in a bundle and then dry them in the machine...and they come out nice

yes, the tag should be removed carefully. Should be trimmed down as close as possible while not ripping it off because that will cause the strands to unravel and mare the paint a little.

Yup dryer for me too. Not sure if it helps but I do permanent press, not the high cotton setting. Be sure to keep the dryer sheets out of the mix too.
