How do I use Tea Towels?Updated 2 days ago
TL;DR: Use the waffle Tea Towel for fast drying and spill cleanup. Use the diamond Tea Towel dry for streak-free polishing and glass cleaning.
Which towel for which job
Waffle weave: drying
Best for soaking up spills, drying dishes, and wiping counters. The textured surface holds more water and speeds up cleanup.
Diamond weave: polishing
Best for polishing glass, mirrors, and stainless steel. Use dry for a streak-free finish. The tighter, smoother surface buffs without leaving lint.
Drying and polishing technique
Drying technique
Start with waffle to remove the bulk of water from dishes or surfaces.
Wring if needed. For large spills, wring the towel so it is damp but not dripping for extra absorbency.
Finish with diamond. Pat or lightly drag over surfaces to pick up remaining moisture for a clean finish.
Polishing technique
Use diamond dry on glassware, chrome, and stainless steel.
Wipe in straight lines or circular motions depending on the surface, then buff with the dry diamond towel for shine.
Stubborn spots: dampen the diamond towel slightly, clean the spot, then dry with a fresh dry section for a spotless result.
Everyday tips
Keep one waffle and one diamond towel on hand for most tasks. Store towels dry and separate from linty fabrics. Avoid fabric softener when washing to preserve absorbency.
