Keep the obsorber wet at all times.
Not to mention clean.If you store it in the container it will stay moist.
It works just like any other shammy, or a towel even.
Those little wet spots it leave will eventually evaporate.
Once it gets soaked,just fold it over and twist all the extra water out.
I only use it to dry whats left after I use the Cali Waterblade.

You can use it like a Chamois or just like a towel.

Take one corner in one hand and use that to pull the rest across the paint. use your other hand to push down on the other end of the Absorber. You kinda use this method like a squeegee. Keep the leading corner up slightly and drag covering about a foot wide path, repeat. When I get the majority off that way and then wring it out and dab and wipe the remaining wet spots.

You don't want it too damp or it will leave trails. Also, I usually drive home from the carwash first or drive around a few blocks if washing at home to get some of the water off before drying it.
