Prefered method to cleaning wash mits, cloths, and sponges?

[Ross]

What's the best way to clean wash mits, sponges, and detailing cloths? Throw them in the washers? Soak them? Anyone?

I use a micro-fiber detergent & my washing machine. I dry them using a clothes line, or dry rack inside the house.

for my buffer pads, i let them soak in a bucket with snappy clean powder and manually rinse them out.

For sponges, i just use a grout sponge from home depot. once its too dirty to use, i just throw it out, there like $3 and last quite a while, so no need to wash them...just rinse them out good after your done.
