WHAT ARE FLUORINATED WAXES?
Fluorinated paraffins — or fluoros — became available around 1990. Fluoros can be blended with warm or cold (hydrocarbon waxes) to produce fluorinated waxes in a variety of hardness grades. These waxes reduce wet friction and friction from dirt. A minimum amount of fluoro (2-3%) produces noticeable effects and more (3-15% depending on humidity) provides optimum results. Fluorinated waxes include DOMINATORs FX series, HyperZoom, RaceZoom, Rocket, and Nordic Gliders.
