Wayne, you do not know what you're talking about. It's too late and frankly, you think that you know it all, so anything that I write won't make any difference to you.
But, I'll make one simple point. Motorsports and drivers education are hobbys that occur in and around flammable materials - gas, oil, etc. It's not as easy as "I'd take off my suit" to avoid stains and such. You need to check tire pressures as soon as you come off the track. That is exactly what it means. Not after you've taken off a suit, drank water, talked with your buddys, etc.
If you need to comment, you need to know what you're writing about. You only have cursor facts. Here is what your link states about the product:
Molecule is a brand of fabric care products manufactured by Molecule Labs in Benicia, California. Molecule Technical Fabric Care System is designed to clean, protect, and refresh Nomex and other technical fabrics. Nomex is a flame resistant material used where protection from heat and fire is required.
Molecule is sold internationally in the motor sports industry as a care system for racing suits. The product line includes Molecule Protector, Molecule Wash, Molecule Spot Cleaner, and Molecule Refresher.
Molecule Protector is a fluorine-based spray that protects technical fabric from absorbing fuel and other flammable liquids. The product is applied to the exterior of flame-resistant clothing to create a protective coating. Because fluorine is a relatively small molecule, it creates a very thin coating that allows the fabric to breathe.
Molecule Wash cleans technical fabric in standard washing machines. Molecule Spot Cleaner is a pre-wash concentrate for deep stains. The products differ from common laundry detergents because they do not contain fabric softeners or other additives that can attract moisture, oils, and flammable stains.
Molecule Refresher is a spray that contains an antimicrobial agent to inhibit the growth of bacterial odors. Auto racing professionals such as drivers and pit crews apply the product to the inside of flame resistant racing suits between washings. The antimicrobial agent in Molecule Refresher is also an ingredient in Molecule Wash.
Molecule was first introduced in 2006 as the only fabric care system specifically formulated for Nomex and other technical fabrics.
Yes, Wayne, this is the link that you are saying is "snake oil". There have been fires on track and in the paddock area. I certainly would not want to find out that my nomex suit that you are telling me to machine wash isn't providing protection.
Again, if you don't know what you're talking about, why do you have to comment?
