any one hear of "the absorber"? is that good i want the drying process to go smoothly i was thinkng of going with the california water blade then a good chamois but i need sugesstions also what is a good wheel cleaner(what makes it easier) hmm what soap do u guys use i use meguiars high sudsing soap is that anygood any suggestions are welcomed thanks! oh ya never got an answer what is power washing

 

I used the absorber on my truck for 3 years before getting the TSX. It is great! It really absorbs the water, didn't leave swirls and doesn't dry out like a real chamois. I have yet to use one on the TSX as it is too cold to wash yet, but I probably will give it another go.

When you say wheel cleaner are you talking about cleaning the rims or the tires?

 

Hey, I saw this from Slats on the wheels boards, thought it might help you in case you didn't read over there:

<<Trick for Cleaning Rims
I've found a great way to clean and protect allloy rims so I thought I'd share it with you all. Here it is:

After washing your wheels and tires and allowing them to dry, spray some WD-40 onto a soft cloth and wipe down the wheels. As you will see, any of that brownish brake dust residue or tar speckle's (I hate driving thru tar!) will easily come off revealing a beautiful glossy shine. The best part, is that the WD-40 makes the surface of the rims really slick, so they are easier to clean next time, and the brake dust doesn't stick as easily.

This method works best on unpainted wheels, but will also work nicely on the OEM TSX rims as well. Hope this helps somebody...Let me know how it works!!

I used to use the absorber until I found about waffle weave towels http://www.premiumautocare.com/platsupsofdr.html
