We Say

CarPro IronX LS Iron Remover is a highly effective, pH-neutral solution specifically designed to remove iron-based contaminants, such as brake dust, industrial fallout, and rail dust, from automotive surfaces. Utilizing advanced chelation technology, IronX LS bonds with ferrous particles, breaking them down at a molecular level and converting them into water-soluble compounds that can be easily rinsed away. This reaction is made visible by the distinctive purple color change, allowing users to see which areas have been treated.

The formulation of IronX LS is non-corrosive, making it safe for use on a wide range of surfaces, including clear coats, wheels, chrome, glass, and matte finishes. The product’s acid-free composition ensures that delicate automotive surfaces remain unharmed during the decontamination process. The higher viscosity of IronX LS helps it adhere to vertical surfaces for an extended contact time, allowing it to fully break down embedded contaminants without the need for excessive scrubbing, reducing the risk of surface damage.

CarPro IronX LS is particularly effective for removing stubborn brake dust from wheels, as well as for preparing paintwork for further treatment. The chelating agents in the formula selectively target and dissolve iron particles that can lead to rust and oxidation if left untreated. This not only preserves the integrity of the vehicle’s finish but also enhances the adhesion of protective coatings, sealants, or waxes applied afterward.

The scientific advantages of CarPro IronX LS extend beyond its cleaning capabilities; by removing harmful iron fallout, it protects the vehicle from long-term damage caused by corrosion. This makes IronX LS an essential tool in any detailing process, ensuring both the appearance and longevity of a vehicle’s surfaces.

Description

CarPro IronX LS Iron Remover

Advanced Ferrous Contaminant Removal for Automotive Surfaces

CarPro IronX LS Iron Remover is an innovative and scientifically formulated product designed to eliminate iron-based contaminants, such as brake dust, industrial fallout, and rail dust, from automotive surfaces. Utilizing advanced chelation technology, IronX LS selectively targets and dissolves ferrous particles, converting them into water-soluble compounds without damaging sensitive finishes. Its pH-neutral, acid-free formulation ensures safe application on a variety of surfaces, including paint, wheels, and glass, while delivering optimal decontamination results.

Key Technical Features of CarPro IronX LS Iron Remover

1. pH-Neutral and Non-Acidic Formula: Safe for use on all painted surfaces, wheels, and glass without the risk of etching or corrosion.

2.Chelating Agents: The advanced chelation technology binds to and dissolves iron particles, allowing for easy removal without harsh scrubbing.

3. Oxidation Reduction (Redox) Reaction: IronX LS triggers a visible chemical reaction—turning purple—when it comes into contact with ferrous particles, confirming effective decontamination.

4. High Viscosity: The thicker consistency enables the product to cling to vertical surfaces, ensuring prolonged contact time for maximum contamination removal.

5. Safe on Sensitive Surfaces: Its gentle formulation is safe for clear coats, matte finishes, polished aluminium, chrome, and other delicate automotive surfaces.

How CarPro IronX LS Works

CarPro IronX LS uses a specialised combination of chelating agents and reductive chemistry to break down and dissolve ferrous particles on a molecular level. The product works by chemically binding to iron contaminants, breaking them down into water-soluble compounds that can be easily rinsed away. This reaction not only removes contaminants from the surface but also prevents rust formation by stopping the iron from oxidizing. The distinct purple bleeding effect indicates the active breakdown of contaminants, making it easy to see which areas have been treated.

Ideal Uses for CarPro IronX LS

- Brake Dust Removal: Removes stubborn brake dust from wheels without damaging the finish.
- Paint Decontamination: Clears iron particles and fallout, preparing the surface for polishing or coating application.
- Glass and Trim: Safely eliminates iron buildup from glass and trim for a flawless finish.

CarPro IronX LS Iron Remover is the go-to solution for tackling iron contamination and fallout, ensuring a safe, effective, and professional decontamination process for your vehicle.

How To Use

CarPro IronX LS comes pre-diluted to the correct strength for safe exterior use.

In all cases, wash and rinse the surfaces you are going to treat in the normal way. Next, working on 3-4 panels at a time, spray IronX LS on liberally and allow 3-5 minutes for it to work; during this interval the initially transparent solution will gradually turn a deep red as ferrous compounds and sintered iron particles dissolve into solution (this effect can be very pronounced, but don't panic because it's quite normal and to be expected).

Although IronX LS is essentially a touchless cleaner, you can agitate it with a microfibre towel if needs be (we recommend using a PB Disposable Towel) or using a wheel brush on alloy wheels.

After 5 minutes or so rinse the surfaces you have treated with a strong stream of water.

Note that if the solution has begun to dry you may need to use a stronger jet of water from a pressure washer to remove the residue.

After rinsing off, check the treated surfaces for residual contamination by running your fingertips over them while they are still wet. Contaminant-free surfaces should feel perfectly smooth (if your fingertips aren't particularly sensitive you can magnify your sense of touch by putting your fingers inside a cellophane wrapper first). If you can detect any grittiness then it's likely that the treated surfaces are still contaminated with non-ferrous particulates (e.g. paint overspray) and will need to be carefully clayed before any polishing is done or any protection is applied.
