I am from Raleigh too.

The risk of the Absorber is that it has no nap so if there was something on the paint it could get trapped and scratch.

It is like the grit guard and all about reducing the chances for swirls. You can get safe washes without one. If you have a good wash / rinse technqiue then using an Clean Absorber is less risky.

I looked at the writeup. It seems to recommend just wash but do not rinse until you have washed the entire car. Does that work for others? Soap dries so quickly.

Thats what i was going to say

At the moment, I have my sponge tire applicators in baggies. I use two different dressings (like VRT and another brand) so dedicated bags. I keep the mf towels for my quick detailer, spray wax, and glass cleaner usually in a cabinet draped over the bottle so I can keep them straight. I have reserved a baggie for my interior dressing since I just started getting more organized myself. I am going to cut up an foam applicator (the open cell foam) to make more smaller applicators. I tried writing in marker on a terry cloth applicator but it bled when I washed it since I was considering dedicated applicators. Net, have no real system but see a need.

I store some of my applicators in inidividual marked zip lock type bags such as for tire dressings, protectants, etc. Al
