Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Why can FW1 clean a car without using water?

A1: Through an emulsification process FW1 Wash and Wax encapsulates and lubricates the dirt and grime making it easy to lift away with no effort.  Once, the dirt is lubricated, it has no choice but to stick to the terry towels instead of the smooth surface.

A2: When used as directed, FW1 will lift dirt away from the vehicle surface without scratches or swirl marks.

Q3: Does FW1 affect the paint on a car?

A3: FW1 Wash and wax cleans the surface of the vehicle down to the clear coat leaving nothing behind but a layer of carnauba wax to protect and shine.

Q4: My car has colored windows. Does FW1 affect the color of the windows?

A4: Do you mean tinted?  FW1 works on glass, chrome and mirrors too.

Q5: What kind of things other than a car can I use FW1 on?

A5: Any non porous surface.  If it has a clear coat on it, FW1 will clean it.  Be creative.  I had a lady tell me one time she took "Sharpie" marker off her grand piano.

Q6: How often should I use FW1 on my car?

A6: That depends on your personal weather conditions and where you park.

Q7: If it rains soon after using FW1 on my car, would that affect the FW1 coating?

A7: The FW1 Wash and Wax leaves a layer of Canauba wax behind.  This wax should make the rain bead up and roll off.

Q8: There are some feather and whirl-like scratches on my car. Can FW1 remove them?

A8: You can always try.  It really depends on what made the marks and how deep they are in the clear coat.....

Q9: Can I use FW1 when the car is wet?

A9: You can, but it makes it A LOT harder to remove.

Q10: If there is yellow sand or sand from an unpaved road on my car surface, can I use FW1 without rinsing it off first?

A10: You can, but you may find that you use more FW1 than you need to.  a quick rinse with time allowed to dry is always your best bet if you are concerned about the mud/dirt/sand buildup.
