FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of contaminants does it remove?
It removes metallic particles such as brake dust and iron deposits through a chemical reaction. It’s effective even against invisible contamination on paint, glass, and wheels.
Where can I use it?
It can be used on painted surfaces, wheels, glass, and exterior plastic parts. Avoid leaving it for too long on bare metal or chrome surfaces.
How often should I use it?
Once a month is recommended. Regular use helps prevent oxidation and paint degradation, especially in areas prone to brake dust or iron buildup.
Can it be used on coated (ceramic-coated) cars?
Yes, it can. However, to maintain the coating performance, keep the reaction time short (about 1–2 minutes) and rinse immediately.
Any precautions during use?
Do not use under direct sunlight or on hot surfaces. If the product dries on the surface, it may cause stains. Avoid using on windy days to prevent spray dispersion.
Does it have a strong smell?
The scent is milder than conventional iron removers, but it still has a distinct chemical odor. Use it in a well-ventilated or outdoor area.
Can it be diluted?
Yes. It can be diluted up to 5:1 depending on the level of contamination. Use undiluted for heavy contamination and 2–5× dilution for light maintenance.
What’s the difference between IRON REMOVER and a wheel cleaner?
IRON REMOVER is designed specifically to remove iron and metallic particles. Alkaline wheel cleaners target oil, grease, and brake dust. They can be used together for deeper cleaning.
Do I need to apply a coating afterward?
After decontamination, the surface becomes completely clean, improving the adhesion and performance of coatings. For best results, apply a coating like OVERcoat ULTRAviolet for long-lasting protection and repellency.
