Just wondering if anyone uses the product. I used it for my Honda the other day and the marine job I did yesturday and it seems to work VERY well.



I didn`t notice any maring. But I could be wrong.

I think I have used the absorber for 20 years or more if it is out that long. Great product as far as I am concerned.

Thanks, I was just wondering, I bought it before I asked because I had heard some great things about it, and I had nothing to dry my car properly with, and for nine bucks, it was definately worth it. I love how you just wring it out and it`ll take so much water and leave the car perfectly dry.

Been using it for nearly a year now. Absolutely love it. I would highly recommend it.

Used it for many years now. No scratches or marring......if you make damn well sure there`s no dirt on it or the paint. Not all that hard really, so it makes drying easier and quicker for me than most mf`s alone.. Just be sure to keep it and the paint clean when drying.

I have been using it for a while also. It dries the car quick. Just make sure you don`t have any dirt on the paint or the Absorber. I usually rinse it with hose throughout the drying process to make sure there is nothing on it to scratch the paint.

I`ve used it and didn`t like it. Nothing compares to a few quality Microfiber waffle weave towels. One to get the `big stuff` and another to follow up with. The absorber seemed to spread the water around more than absorbing IMO.

Used it for a couple of years, then I started using an electric leaf blower and a waffle weave for leftover water spots.

I also have been using the absorber for the past 20 years, best thing I have ever bought and they last forever. Great for the "film" side of tinted windows. I have never experienced any marring of my paint using the absorber. best thing is they come in some cool colors now-a-days.

I did the exact same thing today - wash, leaf blower, waffle weave. One Cobra guzzler is all I needed. Having said that, I do like the absorber too but this leaf blower thing is really cool!
