the absorber!!!
hey, so my work sales this thing called "the absorber" its made by Meguiar's
it is supposed to be like a shami, but better(atleast for the $15 i would think) so i go ahead and buy one because i hate having my shami leaving little bits and pieces on my truck. anyways, to the point... this thing ROCKS! it works wonderfully. it soaks up tons of water and is SO easy to ring out its not even funny. i would highly recommend getting one if you have the means to. |

just got a Mr. Clean auto wash system and it seems to do what it advertises. I also bought a 24pk. of micro-fiber towels from the local Sam's club for $12 and they are the shiz!
