Evolution Sorbent Products XMBGPF1310 Polypropylene: Superior Absorbency for Efficient Spill Control Review

I bought these to place under a heater in an outside cupboard where pipes sometimes leak. They absorb water and I like their small size, but an old towel suffices for my use.

I spilled about half a glass of oil. Not only did it take a while to sink in, but it went right through after half escaping from the side of the pad. Now I use it to store dirty tools or oil filters until I go for recycling. It is better to use cardboard as a substrate.

I have noticed very poor water intake? My basement is flooded due to water problems. I placed them throughout the basement hoping to pick up water in key places. I couldn't believe it. Did I notice that these pads are waterproof and non-absorbent? I was amazed at the inefficiency of these pads? I had to rip out the bounty paper towels, which worked 10x better. Maybe they handle oil spills better? I haven't used them for this purpose yet.
