I use an Absorber as well. Lasts a lot longer than a chamois and doesn't dry out as bad. It makes drying a black truck a hell of a lot easier and helps to keep the water spots down a little too.

Yea, they're awesome!! Been using mine for 6 years, 6 different trucks, and still the same absorber. Just every now and then toss in the washer and it's clean like new, just don't dry it!! I don't see how it could be bad for your paint.

I've used them for about 8 years or so, maybe longer. Love 'em to death!
