Please read: what Micro-Wash is and is not

  • The pilot is designed to remove the upfront cost of starting. How the kit is funded, and anything you repay, is set out in the franchise disclosure document and kit terms, which you receive before you sign anything.
  • Micro-Wash is a business opportunity, not a job. Molecules does not promise or guarantee any income; what you earn depends on your customers, prices and hours.
  • Places in the pilot are limited. Applying does not guarantee a kit. You must be 18 or older.
  • Working at an office park, estate or mall needs the property owner’s permission. We help you approach them.
