These will dry your car with no streaks and you can use it over and over and throw it in the washer. Best of all you can wring it as you dry your car so it becomes bone dry again. Great for windows where streaks usually show up, but not after "the absorber."

Pros:
-Works better than a chamois in absorbing water.
-Does not produce streaks when drying autos. Spotfree!
-I cut it in half or a quarter size and it is great on the kitchen tops, sink, bathroom,...
-Works marvelous on kitchen spills
-Available almost everywhere
-Cheaper than chamois

Cons:
-You have to store it moist in the canister or it will dry stiff as a cardboard. (Dip it on water and it is good to go again).
-Storing it moist promotes growth of bacteria and micro-organism. Forget about using it on your body as a towel or drying your plates, pots and utensils.

No more wet dog towels to dry. Its curious how this material seems to suck out water on contact. It's a fast job to get a Golden Retriever damp-dry, only wringing out the absorber once.

The Absorber really exceeded my expectations. I've used chamoise and other drying products for years and this really is more effective than all of them. The key isn't necessarily how much it absorbes (which is a lot) but the way it becomes completely dry just from hand ringing. So unlike other drying methods which are good for the first surface you start on, you can ring out the absorber after each section and it's like grabbing a brand new towel.

I initially bought one of these to dry my car... and years later (with the original one still being used to dry the car) found other uses - so now I have one to dry the dog (they are awesome for this!) and to dry the shower. I keep one in the car and after hunt training with my dog its quick to dry him. No more bringing home soggy towels to wash/dry out and if I am away training/testing for multiple days in a row I always have a way to dry dogs quickly. For the shower, dump the squeegee and just 1/2 of one of these.

These are amazing, I would not wash my car without it. I went from using and washing 4 or 5 towels to just my absorber. They work great, no smears or scratches from the absorber. I would recommend using a towel on windows though, the absorber doesn't clean windows well. My wife actually cuts them up and uses them around the house for cleaning and spills. Great multi-purpose product.

I use this product to wipe my car off when I clean it and it works great. would reccomend

I love the color of this chamois! It actually makes hand drying your car (which is the primary use for myself) fun and quick! No residue, and leaves your car looking polished and sleek!

The absorber works as well as a chamois, if not better, and it is much less expensive. I recommend it for drying cars as it dries with ease and efficiency.Absorber 51149 The Absorber Chamois 27" x 17" (Colors May Vary)

I personally don't finish drying with this, as I find is smears a bit. But, for sopping up the excess water right after washing the car it's perfect, then I wipe till dry with a microfiber cloth.
