Absorber

whoa this product owns, i've always though the absorber is just an ordinally towel and its like those tornado thing that u see on TV, so one day i was bored and decide to check out autozone, and got an absorber, after the purchase i just toss it in the car and ignore the fact that i bought one and weeks later i checked my trunk for my missing sweater and found it then i saw the absorber and did a quick wash/dry on my car and this tower just blows everything i ever used. and for only 8 bucks i highly reccomend it

Wait until you break it in over time. It will work better and better the more you use it. I own a detail shop and that's what I use. I hate when they're new, so I put mine in the washer machine a couple times to break it in a little quicker.

Not anywhere by me. I tried 2 pepboys, 2 autozones, a discount auto, & Napa. None of them had the real one. They had cheap knockoffs. Can I use a knockoff?

nah these places are a rip off especially since they should be cheaper than in store prices. You can get this product for 8-12 bux I think at Kragen or if you goto Wal-Mart

Yeah don't buy online. They charge a fortune to ship it.

Walmart
Kmart
Target

Walmarts by me don't have it. No targets, & Kmart is going out of bussiness around me, so I don't think they have it.

Hmm, thats odd Fuzzy, I assumed they all have them. They are in plastic cases and say ABSORBER on it...they come in colors blue, green, purple, yellow, tan, ...pink and red possibly..Thats crazy that you can't find them. Hmm let me know how the search comes out.
