My old towels leave to much lint on the car so I went to K-Mart looking for a new drying method. I wound up buying the Absorber cause I liked the blue color. Turns out the thing works awsome! Dries the car really nicely and leaves no streaks on my windows.

 

I picked up one this weekend but I haven't had enough time to clean my car yet...I got green

 

Better than the california water squeege?

 

I used it too until I got the Pakshak MF's. They dry much more thouroughly than the absorber, but the absorber is pretty decent.

 

Only thing with the Absorber is that its hard to move it across the surface like a terry cloth, but it sure does absorb water like its no ones business. I recommend it.

Agreed, but it still works wonders.

People have also sworn by the waffel weave towel sold by PakShak. I'd like to try one of them on day.

 

anyone elses absorber have a funky smell?

 

Hell yea it has a funky smell. Just wash it out.

 

I've never smelled mine...

 

Smell it and it will knock you out.

 

just keep it clean and put it back in its container....I love mine

 

I got some dirt on mine, you guys know a way to get it out?

 

I have too on occasion....high pressure wash works for me.

 

Thanks, so a hose w/ nozzel would do some good?

 

if its high pressure like a self serve car wash, yes.

 

i think that it is one of the best cleaning tools i have ever had. i had it for over a year, and it still works as good as new. it will last a long time as long as you leave it slightly wet in the plastic canister.

 

i have one of those too. but the dirt stains are hella hard to get out. i'll try the pressure washer method. but these suckers work wonders.

 

Hey guys! I have been a faithful fan of 'The Absorber' for about a year and a half now. To get the funky smell and any dirt off, just toss it in the wash I have washed mine many times and they still work like the day I bought it! This is truly a great detailing tool!

I've used the Absorber for about 5 years and have had no problems. I bought a MF from Pakshak and I like it but I still think the absorber works better. I also use the absorber for my windows which I can't do with the MF because it leaves little water spots.

I also use Klasse AIO along with a little Pinnacle on top. It makes for a real nice shine on my Z.

 

wash the sucker with warm water.. warm water gets gunk out real good when u accidently get dirt on the absorber.. and don't lose the container.. mine dissappeared so i gotta get another one. make sure you keep the cloth damp (not dripping wet, but damp to the feel). and rinse it with warm water again right before you use it.
