Default Molecule Suit Cleaner- anyone used it?

I've seen threads about the product but has anyone actually used it? If it's half as good as they say it is it may be worth a try. I see where they now sponsor a champ car team and I like to support sponsors if their product is any good...
Hype or decent? I see many racing shops now sell it.

Hi skl
Do a search and you will find a good thread on this topic. I think there was positive feedback (and a bunch of us that said 'wow; $100?!)
Hope this helps; nice selection of cars you have there!

This stuff is instead of simply throwing your suit into the washer like the manufacturer recommends?

My suit is light blue and white and still looks good 4 years later with simple washing in cold water and hang dry.

What Tom said. According to this site, laundering will not remove the FR properties of Nomex as it is a built-in property of the fabric, not a coating

Unfortunately they aren't exactly sponsoring the front of the grid!!! But champ car needs every car they can get and the grids are still pretty pathetic... (no flame, I'm a cc fan, I just remember the good old days...)

cold water, gentle cycle, ivory snow in powder form then hang dry with a sturdy wood hanger.

same story for wetsuits if you happen to own one of those too
