Besides just mild detergent and trying to soften it out with HOT water, what other options are there?

Are you using it to apply the wax, or buff it off? I use the round sponge applicator that comes with my Meguiars NXT Tech Wax, and then a microfiber to buff off the dry haze. That towell always comes clean in the wash.

I was using the towel to buff it off. Apparently hand washing doesn't really work. I keep forgetting to throw it in the laundry and instead do it in the sink.

LOL....yeah, I've done that too. Here's what I started to do: I bought several microfiber towels (in two different sizes) from Wal-Mart. I keep them folded and sealed in a Tupperwear-type container about the size of a shoebox. I use them to buff wax, dry the car after I use the California Water Blade, dust the dash, clean the windows with Stoner's Invisible Glas.....etc. Anyhow, as I start to accumulate "dirty" ones, I just pile them all in one spot in my garage until I'm almost out of clean ones. Then I just toss them in the washing machine set to very small load all by themselves. When they are done, I toss them in the dryer at LOW heat. Too hot can melt the microfibers and make then abrasive. Then I fold them and put them back in the sealed container.
