Car pro Iron x - gets rid of those pesky rust specks

Just used this product and was extremely impressed with the results on my silver g37 sedan. I didn’t document the process but got some pictures along the way. My cars paint was extremely speckeled with tiny rust like paint contaminatants (rail dust and who knows what) . Used this product as directed and all of it melted off before my eyes. Highly recommend for fellow white and silver G owners. Great alternative to hours with the clay bar
Car pro iron X 32oz - $32 dollars shipped.
Applied generously and still have more than half left.
product turns purple/red as it removes fallout contamination. This stuff does stink use outside and try to keep it off yourself.

The Iron x

Applied to neglected wheel (previous owner)


This is where most of the spots were

I have tons of those rust specs. I will definitely give this a try. Thank you for this. Did you re-wax your car afterwards?

Here’s the process I followed and had great results
1.wash
2. ironx and rinse
3. Clay bar (much easier than it would have been)
4. Polish if needed
5. A nice coat or Carnauba wax. I used megs gold glass.

I would recommend this whole process. But I suppose just wax would be fine after ironx.

Finished results. I’m very happy with it.

"This stuff does stink" ......is the understatement of the year .

This stuff is damn right rancid ...smells like death/skunk through the bottle even . I opened up my tall cabinet in the garage and swore something had died inside .
It is an incredible product that does as advertised and really does an incredible job on (MoonLight White) but it is rancid and needs to be stored accordingly

I removed the spray top, washed it and capped it with a cap that screwed on top and then into a gallon sized zip -lock bag .....this did the trick .

Is it always safe to spray on most painted surfaces?

Would a product like this be helpful in eliminating the rust in attached pics? Only very very slight surface rust from previous owner debadging but if I can save it I'd love to without paint work. If not anyone have any ideas aside from a re-spray?

Wash . Ironx. And clay bar that area. I bet it would be clean as a whistle. Maybe just a wash and clay bar spot treatment . Hope this helps! please post results if you do this!
