i'm getting mixed opinions on the absorber

hmm lots of options

so far i have microfiber towels from costco but you guys use that just for touch up on water spots right? i need to get some real chamois

Everyone has their own experience on which works best (Chamois, Absorber, Microfiber Towel...etc.) so you gotta try everything until you find out which works best for you.

Absorber kicks butt. I use it on my car in the summer and in the winter.

The Absorber is the best towel you'll find to dry your car. Holds way more water than any chamois out there. Chamois suck period. Why waste your time with a chamois and then use a microfibre cloth. You can dry you can faster, and get better results with the absorber.

I have plenty of microfibre cloths, and they are good for picking up dust and dirt. When it comes to drying your car. ABSORBER, no doubt in my mind. I'll never buy another cloth for drying my car. I hand wash my car all year around (summer and winter). I bought my absorber cloth at Wal-mart. I guess I could have bought it at cdn tire, but it was like $9 cdn at Wal-mart. I think they may have messed up the barcode or something, because I think it was double that price at cdn tire.

Anyways, since you don't have cdn in the US. You can probably find the absorber at Wal-mart.

yea, the Absorber works for me. Chamois would always leave lint or dust on the car.

I've never tried the Absorber, but this Cobra waffle weave towel is the BEST drying towel I've ever used so far. And I've tried a lot of different towels.

Just a tip: When you rinse off your car prior to drying, grab the hose (with no nozzles, etc...) and just let the water run off the panels. Don't apply any pressure. This will allow a lot off the water to sheet off the car by itself. Then use the waffle weave towel to dry the rest. Works like a charm. Good luck.

ok thanks for the advice guys.

so you can buy the absorber from walmart right? where else?

and where can i get that California Water Blade thing?

about the wiper blade, i heard caution needs to be taken when using it though. because small dirt can get stuck to it and then you drag it across the paint and scratch it
