причастия

I have a question about причастия (sorry I can't think of the english word for it, and I know I should have conjugated that to use it in the sentence...).

When you have a reflexive verb, how do you add the reflexive ending? I'm reviewing for my final exam and seem to have lost that class' notes.

e.g.

люди которие улыбаются

would that become

1) улыбающиесь
2) улыбающиеся

an interesting verb: обтирание

обтирание -- abby lingvo translation is "sponge down" or "rub down"

When I asked my girlfriend what this word means, she tried to explain in English: When you put a towel in the water, then rub it over your body... She said this was a common public service / hygiene recommendation in Soviet times: when showers were scarce, wipe down with a wet towel. (Which fits the use in the song lyrics...)

I just heard this verb used in a Vladimir Vuisotskiy song (Утренняя гимнастика) playing on "Stars on Ice" (звёзлы на льду) -- full song lyrics behind the cut:
