I've used a chamois for the longest time, but just started using a waffle weave towel. Works great, less scratches, and holds a ton of water

Do yourself a favor and go with Microfiber-thats what Pro detailers use. All the gimmicks like the absorber and water blades are just that gimmicks.

Yeah the absorber seemed like a great idea until I saw what it did to my clearcoat! Swirl city.

Good god.. I've been using the absorber this whole time. 
I never noticed swirls on my white paint.. until the other day. That's probably why I have them.

Over time I have acumlated 3 absorbers, all of them are good used condition, no tears or rips, $15 takes all them including shipping conus, hate to throw them out but I dont use them any more, PM to discuss.
BTW-Speaking of Sonus, I see Sonus, UDM and The Ultimate Shine are all owned by David Byron (sp?) small world,indeed.Last edited by 99'CajunFirehawk157; 01-24-2008 at 07:01 AM.
