The Absorber
The soft touch that's tough on wetness. The original PVA drying skin. Dries small cars in 2-3 minutes. Resists most chemicals

Best drying cloth ever
Date: June 21, 2009
"Off all the products I purchase this weekend including car wash soap, tire rim cleaner, microfibre clothes, wash mit and spray on wax this item is my favorite. Dryed an entire car with only needing to be ringed out once. Also, comes in an assortment of cool colours!"
Review 2 for The Absorber
Awesome Product
Date: June 11, 2009
"This is the best thing you can buy for drying your car. I love the soft rubbery feel it has and it doesn't scratch your car's finish. Makes it so easy and fast to dry the car now because it holds so much water. I usually only have to wring it out a few times and I'm done. The plastic container keeps it nice and moist between washes but after a few times it starts to smell a bit mouldy. Wash it with a bit of soap and water and it's as good as new. Sometimes when it gets a bit dirty I find that it's really hard to get it completely clean."

Huge Fan! Outperforms The Rest!
Date: June 7, 2009
"I've used this, microfibre weave towels & cloths, and Armor All's synthetic chamois to dry cars.
The Absorber truly outperforms them all in my opinion.
-- Microfibre weave towel: great at drying - until they get soaked about halfway through your car dry. They then pick up less, spread water around and don't wring out water very well. Also, they need to be hung out to dry afterward. Not a bad option overall though.
-- Armor All's syn. chamois - not bad. Doesn't slide along a clean car as easily as The Absorber and doesn't seem to pick up as much...but it IS $7-8 cheaper...
The Absorber picks up a LOT of water, slides nicely, wrings well, doesn't harden up of course and truly is easy to store quickly for the lazy."
Review 4 for The Absorber
Better then the rest
Date: September 15, 2008
"I used to always buy the $30-$40 sheep skin ones, but this is much better for less money. It says to leave it in the plasitc container it comes with, make sure you don't throw it away b/c if you leave the towel just hanging it will dry up."

Review 6 for The Absorber
Amazing!
Date: May 24, 2008
"I leave this in the trunk of my car all year round so that it's always handy whenever I have the urge to wash my car. It can soak up an incredible amount of water and I could probably dry my whole vehicle without having to wring it out once! Make sure you wash it every now and then though, otherwise it will start to smell a little funky."

BEST SHAMMY YET!
Date: April 8, 2008
"I have used every single method to dry my car - Leather,micro fibre,clothe,towels...ect and not only does the absorber pick up the water twice as fast but it also does not scratch and leave any swirly marks. I just got this last week and it makes drying my car a dream."

Absorbs all trouble
Date: April 8, 2008
"I used this chamois on my car, dog, carpet, you name it and it absorbs anywhere from 85-90% of the liquid! It is definitely worth every dime."
Review 9 for The Absorber
The most absorbent
Date: October 9, 2007
"This is a great product for absorbing any liquid whether it's a spilt drink or drying off the car after it's been washed, just remember to always rinse it out after use."
