I've been using an Absorber for years (the same one) and I love it, wouldn't use anything else, besides Jessica Alba's bikini top

I have been using the Absorber for many years now. I tried the water blade once but took it back because I didn't like it.

I use it and if it gets old and dirty you tcan hrow it in the washer machine and it works even better. Oh and always keep it stored in the container it comes in.

I have it and can't imagine using anything else. In fact, I have two, one I use for the bumper and any other areas thats gets dirty fast. The other I use for my cf hood, fenders, roof and trunk.
