Does this towel bleed? Do you have to wash the towel separately in its own load each time you want to wash it?

I got it all over a couple bath towels and a white wash rag. I washed them normally and it came out no problem. I also got it on a robe. It washed right up.

Yes. I have washed with a little bleach and it has been just fine. It is like a thick towel.

Yep! I've washed mine 4 or 5 times now. It says to wash it alone. I don't know why, but I do. Cold, gentle and air-dry. Comes out great!

We have one with two shades of blue. We have washed it several times has never bleed. It has not faded. It does have some spots where sun screen has gotten on it. It is great for beach. Travels well and is light

I think so. First couple times I did it, I made a big mess too. Should be thicker, not runny. I still put a paper towel down.

I washed them in one group with nothing else for the first wash and the yellow darkened as if the blue, green and red bled. But all of the other colors look great. I have since washed the bibs multiple times with other items and have not had any bleeding. I separate whites, lights and darks when I wash but don't do a specific load for reds.

I personally can't compare it to the older version, but would say during my use over a weekend at the beach where it got wet and had some sunny time and shady time on the laundry line it had a lot of potential to stink but never really did. I washed the towels pretty quickly when we got home as well. Just take care of it! I machine wash on a gentler cycle and then have done the dryer with no heat (dries quickly with a small load) and it's holding up well so far.

I got the two of the chocolate brown color so I had a spare while I was washing a load of cloths. I wash & dry it with my cloth diapers and have never had any issues with the color bleeding. It is the same Gortex type liner as the diapers and I haven't experienced any other problems like it compromising the absorbancy, etc of my cloth diapers. It says you can dry it in the dryer but personally I found it works better when you hang dry.

I wash mine in the washing machine along with a load of towels. It comes out looking new.

I have washed mine many times in residential and commercial machines and have had no problems with shrinking or bleeding. As a precaution I did wash it with only dark colors on the first wash.

I tested the towel just as you asked: I wiped down our shower and hung the towel on the side of the tub. Yes, the towel was dry the next morning.

I put it through regular warm cycle. Then I put it in the dryer for about 15 minutes. I don't wash with any other clothes, so have never had a bleeding problem. I like it very much, it does exacly what it says, absorbs the dirt and mud.

I've always just thrown it into the wash with everything else. I don't know how it would damage clothes or the towel.

` This GREAT towel weighs exactly 19.6 oz. [ .56 kg ] and "feels heavy" after using smaller, lighter towels. I use it frequently for home but, would NOT take it in my backpack due to the weight. It is also bulky and takes up 13% of my 60 liter Osprey backpack. Nevertheless, it is very absorbent and nice to look at compared to cotton or blended towels. I know you were looking for a "quantitative answer" so, I just now weighed the towel with my fish/ luggage hanging scale that I also love for checking my backpack load. Hope this helps! Way to go Amazing-zon!! ~

I believe it is pre washed..I washed it before using it anyway..as per bleeding I hadnt noticed any but I imagine it will a little..it doesnt seem quite thick enough to do upholstery
