<p>An oil-based article (10) absorbs oil-based fluid (16) on a surface such as water (14). The article (10) is made of a cloth (30) or a cloth (30) and a flotation material (40). Preferably, the cloth (30) has a napped surface (32). The cloth (40) inhibits water absorption to inhibit water from contacting the flotation material (40). Thus, the flotation material (40) absorbs oil-based fluid (16) to increase the absorption capability of the article (10). A method includes the steps of applying the article (10) to the oil-based fluid (16) and absorbing the oil-based fluid (16). An apparatus includes the article (10) and rollers (62, 64) to apply force to the article (10).</p> |
