Product Description
The absorber was designed over 30 years ago to dry cars and trucks. It is the ORIGINAL PVA shammy. The super absorbent power of the absorber not only dries your car quickly, but leaves a streak free finish behind. Once the absorber is saturated with water simply wring it out and continue drying your vehicle. For the hood of your car we recommend that you lay the absorber flat on the surface and pull it across the hood, trunk, or car top. Let the absorber do the work for you as it sucks up the water as you move across the surface of your vehicle. You can fold the absorber to dry the side panels of your vehicle. The absorber can be used to dry the nooks and crannies of your vehicle. This is a distinct advantage over blade type and other drying devices.The absorber is reinforced with a mesh scrim for added durability and strength, but has NO surface fibers which makes it safe for all paint finishes. It also will not remove wax from your vehicle as you dry it. It is resistant to most chemicals. It is unharmed by grease and oils. Best of all the absorber is machine washable and will last for years.

5 out of 5 stars perfect with a squeegee   October 30, 2008
I cut them in half and use them for window washing with a squeegee( to wipe rubber blade dry) I no longer have to continually replace with a dry towel. Just squeeze out the excess water and keep on going. They will become hard if not kept in a plastic bag for storage


5 out of 5 stars Extremely versatile   October 24, 2008
Other than drying your car, this cloth has many other uses. It can be used on countertops, on your dog after a bath or as a bath towel in itself.

I remember swim team kids having chamois in Korea that they used to dry off with and this cloth does an excellent job of that. The pool, the beach or as a sweat rag, this chamois can handle anything. I take mine whenever I travel and use it as a bath towel and I never have to worry about how sanitary towels are.

When it gets too dirty, all you have to do is throw it in the washing machine and all the dirt gets cleaned off. Remembering to store it wet and in its' tube goes a long way toward having it ready to use.

One more thing, no matter what it says, it can indeed get moldy. No matter what, DO NOT store this in a dark place. First the smell arrives, then the spots and before you know it, you have an absorber that has mildew damage and while it still works, it wont last as long.

Overall, this is a great product and I will continue to buy them til they are no longer in production.



5 out of 5 stars The Absorber is GREAT   October 20, 2008
I bought this Absorber for each of my adult children's stockings for Christmas and they are great. My husband is a "REAL Chamois" fan and he used my daughter's Absorber one day and was sold. So I had to get him his own!


5 out of 5 stars The best to dry your car   October 14, 2008

I have used many products to dry my cars over the years, this is the best. I even bought a cheaper product that looked the same to relace my first Absorber, a mistake. I ended up buying another Absorder. I should note my first one still worked fine, it was just looking old after a few years of use. I give The Abdsorber an A+ nothing works better.


5 out of 5 stars Absorber Chamois work for me   September 8, 2008
I use the Absorber Chamois on my classic car, my boat, my truck and my daily driver. The latest use is for drying out my shower at home. Great product! In particular I like the ability to store the chamois in the container still damp without getting mildew. When the chamois get dirty I simply dump them in the wash machine and run through a regular wash cycle.
