I've had an absorber for probably 12 years now, still works great. If it get too many black steaks on it from the rubber window moldings I just wash it, rinse it really well and stick it back in the tube. I tried the California water blade and it made noise that sounded like dragging your fingernails down a chalkboard, I was so scared it would screw up the paint so I brought it back. I also bought one of the newer towels in the tube called "Aqua-dry" and it's pretty good, I couldn't find my absorber at the time...Has anyone tried the Mr Clean spotless car wash thingy with the filter in it? Does it really work?

I just bought "The Absorber" chamois at an Auto Zone store and i am really impressed!!! It works amazingly!!!!! I am so glad i listened to the store clerk. She recommended this over all the other chamois and towels she had in store.
I also have the SHAM WOW(yeah, i am a sucker too!) and it sucks! It streaks and does not absorb water at all. I used it as soon as i bought it from the store to wipe my car after it had been raining and it was terrible so today after trying "The Absorber" i gave it another shot to compare them but it still sucks! So.......yeah, definitely get The Absorber!!! |

Chamois drag dirt across your cars finish and will scratch the surface .

Don't laugh at this product, it's had a sad ending.
Vince Argee, the ShamWow inventor was killed by an accidental gunshot wound on Jan. 28. They did a feature on it on NPR TV in Canada, hav'nt seen it elswhere yet. Someone posted it on you Tube. He leaves behind a Fiancee and 1 son from a previous marriage.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPE0FqRyCrc

The Absorber is my bathtowel for those hard-to-reach areas.
But seriously, it's a fantastic "chamois" if you can call it that. |
