Our take on the Formula 1 Carnauba Paste Wax

Formula 1 Carnauba Paste Wax is a 12 oz paste wax for painted and clear-coated car surfaces. It cleans light scratches and haze, adds a high-gloss shine and leaves water-beading protection without white powdery residue. It ships with a foam applicator. At $16.99 at Lowe's as of November 4, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent price range, which is typical for a 12 oz paste wax.

Questions and answers

Is Formula 1 Carnauba Paste Wax worth it?
Yes, if you want a hand-applied paste wax with good gloss and light swirl removal at a low price. If you want months of protection with less effort, a synthetic sealant is a better fit.
How long does the protection last?
Carnauba paste waxes typically bead water for a few weeks to a couple of months, depending on sun, rain and washing. Reapply when water stops beading.
Does it remove scratches?
It cleans light scratches and haze from the clear coat and helps hide fine swirls. It will not remove deep scratches that catch a fingernail.
Can I use it on a clear coat and all paint finishes?
Yes. Formula 1 lists it as compatible with clear coat and all paint finishes, and it is residue-free on trim.
What is in the box?
A 12 oz jar of paste wax and a foam applicator. You supply microfiber towels for removal.
