THE ABSORBER

 

Well I used this product of a recomendation from my friend and I give it a 9 out of 10

 

This thing will dry your car very well and doesn't leave a scratch on it either.

 

This is the same thing boaters and swimmers use to dry off. The absorber will hold a shiz load of water and then you can wring it out and do it all over again.

It's fairly tough just don't get it caught in your windshield wipers it will rip..........

 

Other then that great product.

I have used Absorbers for about 6 years and they are the best I have ever tryed!!!

 

The cheap knock-off ones in the tubes are worthless :D

Yeah, they are great. I recently ran mine through the washing machine and it emerged undamaged and ready for action.

Great product.

I'll give it 5 out of 5 stars. I have had mine forever, and it works great. when finished, you can ring it out and put it back in the tube wet. It will be ready for you the next time you need it.

The nice part is they are very durable. Stand up to a punishing. Plus they can double as a towel to wipe off after you and the wife have a water fight :D:thumbs::nono:

Yup! Just don't let it stay wet for too long (I wring most of the water out). It will mildew.

I've had my Absorber for 8 years. :thumbs: It is an amazing piece of material. Love the way it soaks up the water. I don't think it absorbs as much as it did new. You can use it two ways - fast wipes to push the excess water off the car and slow wipes to really suck up the water.

 

I usually store my Absorber slightly damp in the tube after a good wringing. The one time I left it in there really wet was over a hot week in the summer - got some mildew on it.

 

I use a silicone California Squeegee for the glass now. Doesn't leave water spots. Absorber works pretty well, but can sometimes leave tiny water spots behind on glass that is a little irritating.

I do EXACTLY what Supurban does. California Water Blade for the windows, Absorber for the metal. I've been using one for a while, it works GREAT. I also leave mine a little damp but not soaking wet. This is actually suggested in the directions, to store it damp. I got mine at K-mart. I leave it right in the truck.

Suburban's got it right. :thumbs: I haven't used a natural chamois in a decade. I still have the first absorber I bought, it has been demoted now to my Simplicity Sunstar tractor...but still works great. I have at least a half dozen of them color coded to the vehicles, boat, other duty. They take alittle while to break in for maximum absorbancy and to get the manufacturing "suds" out of them. I have never machine washed one. If it gets soiled it goes in a bucket of water for a good working over and multiple wringings...even grease will come out of them when this is done properly with a little car wash soap or marine "spray-nine" applied directly, then rinsed and wrung multiple times. :eek: Always store damp in tube and very seldom ever mildewed. the once or twice i've seen any mildew, the above process takes it out (spray-nine). 10 out of 10 for the absorber in my 10 years of experience with them!
