0:10
shamwow now one of my co-workers bought one and so i figured what the hey let's
0:15
do an unboxing of the shamwow so you'll
0:18
say wow every time according to vince uh the guy with the criminal record now
0:23
because of the incident in vegas but
0:26
don't let that take away from his credibility okay so check
0:30
actually you know what i'm gonna go off camera i'm gonna ask my co-worker why he
0:33
bought this so he claims that he bought it because
0:37
apparently they're good for cleaning your bike so there you go okay let's
0:40
let's open up the box clean spills fast machine washable lasts for years clean
0:45
more and work less these are super absorbent towels as seen on tv they're
0:49
made in germany all right um
0:53
shamwow is a towel chamois and sponge all in one you can use it over and over
0:57
wash dry and polish machine washable bleachable and will last for years okay
1:02
so that's pretty much the same thing that it said before home car spills pet
1:05
stains bathrooms and more and the directions okay directions are really
1:09
important so directions use on everything
1:12
for best results wash or wet the shamwow towel before using
1:18
something about vinegar pet stains use white vinegar to
1:22
eliminate the smell okay care instructions let's open it up okay finally finally
1:26
rope we're opening up the shamwow so this is an eight pack of shamwows you
1:30
actually get oh you know what we should be we should
1:34
be doing like the ding sound effect and then i'm just i should just be gesturing
1:38
as they all appear on the table so you actually get
1:43
four mini sham wows okay there finally there's another one you get more
1:47
instructions about how it clean spills fast and
1:50
four full sized chamois so the full-size
1:54
ones are about this big so i'm going to
1:57
do some testing here so my first benchmark will be an
2:01
absorbency benchmark so we're going to just go ahead and fill up the brand new
2:07
chamois with as much water as we can and
2:11
then we're going to see how much water it holds now they claim no drips but i'm
2:16
not entirely convinced that is accurate on account of
2:21
okay hold on a second that's not bad it's not dripping anymore
2:26
but if i put it in my hand then it starts to drip so okay so now we've
2:30
we've discovered something about the chamois that we perhaps didn't know
2:33
before now now we'll do we'll do the old bring it out water test so let's see how
2:37
much water comes out of it oh check this out it's green water so
2:42
we're getting a little bit of the dye from the uh from the chamois coming out
2:46
with the water so check this out you got to look in the sink to see the green
2:49
water here oh yeah green water very nice okay okay
2:53
so now now let's see how useful it's gonna be for cleaning my co-workers bike
2:56
here so this is uh this is my co-worker's
3:00
bike it's a lot nicer than my bike as you can clearly see here come on come on
3:04

3:08
you know show off show off shots here of your bike and i'll i'll try not to bump
3:13

3:17
what he's intending to do with it
3:28
