Q:
Which one is better for drying your car, the "absorber" or a leather chamois . I know that the absorber is easy to use and can be machine washed. However, the leather chamois can't be machine washed. I use a leather chamois and I was thinking about switching to the absorber, but I don't know if it will make more swirl marks than the chamois. Which one do you think will make less swirl marks?
A:
Get a waffle weave microfiber towel to dry with. 10X better than the old chamois.
Swirl marks are not a problem -- all I do is lay the WW towel on the few water spots left and they are absorbed leaving no trace. If you pat the wet spots and don't rub or drag, you won't get swirls or scratches.

use a california water blade and a microfiber towel to get any missed spots. super fast super dry

I have heard of owners using a leaf blower, so nothing drags against the paint.
I currently use 100% USA manufactured cotton towels.
However I just recently bought some microfiber towels that have a really have an interesting promise. Maybe this weekend I'll find out.

the absorber is good, but i find it not really drying the vehicle when you use it. microfiber is alot better.

Use Mr Clean Auto-Dry if you are a lazy guy like me! :D

I use a synthetic chamois. I have a natural "leather" chamois in the garage that got used one pass on the roof. When I saw the little marks it made, I threw it in the garage and bought a synthetic chamois. I haven't used an "absorber" so I don't know about that.
