An "Ooops" with Microfiber Towels
Long story cut short...my Cobra Lavender microfiber towels ended up in the dryer on low heat setting with a bounce sheet. When I found them, I took them out, rewashed in the machine them with DP microfiber cleaner and dried them again on low heat in the dryer. Is one cycle through the dryer with a bounce sheet enough to ruin the towels?
Thanks in advance for your opinions.

You should be fine. The dryer sheets release a chemical that reduces static and softens the towel, but it is not permanent. A wash should get rid of everything, a second wash would not be a bad idea just for your own peace of mind.

...and throw out all those "chemical relasing" bounce sheets! My mom used to use them on my clothes when I was a kid and I'd get horrific headeaches until we discovered the dryer sheets were the culprit.
