Iron Filling Removal with Iron Cut (Vid + Pics)

Hi,

A friend of mine called me some time ago, saying that his bumpers where getting a bit rusty, which was a bit awkward as they are made of plastic :thumb:



Beforehand I had promised him to correct the paint and now it was filled with iron fillings from the snow ploughs during the winter months, so I had to remove the metal particles somehow. I've used acidic decontamination systems before, but as I actually like automotive paints I have been looking for something safer.

In most cases, claying will remove the filling itself but I wont remove the area which has been coloured by the iron particle.

So I did a small video and shot a few pictures of Iron X in use. Remember to watch the whole thing.

Video is here:

I may do a full writeup some day..

You just cost everyone who sees this money.

 

Nice, was thinking of picking up 50mL sample. May just have to make that I will pick up a 50mL sample just to see how it works.

 

Great review ... I haven't tried my IC yet. I want to do a test and compare it to Sonax Wheel Cleaner that it's coming my way soon.

 

x2, crap I guess I gotta buy this now, I just did a Lexus starfire pearl that was coated in iron filings and they took forever, I wish I had this at the time. :doh:

 

Where are the cars picking up so much iron filings? I havent had any on my car, but my wife's chips show some rust - would this work as well on that?

 

Werd.....

 

In the OP he said it's from snow plows during the winter, I never even realized that but it makes a lot of sense. I think it can come from railroad tracks too.

 

Ah, right. SO glad I don't have this on mine

 

Nice video! I ordered my Aquartz, Aquartz+, and Iron Cut today so I will do a full writeup on that stuff too.

 

Hi Guy,
just to let you know that the west cost company who mentioned before is NOT going to sell the IronCut ..etc..

 

- Heh, probably - but at least the product will be worth it. :angel:

- The Sonax Wheel Cleaner is pretty good, the Iron Cut is more economical to use if you want to remove heavier staining on wheels from the brake dust. Avoid spraying it on some wheel weights though - if they're bare metal, they can turn green - and it's REALLY green.

Snow ploughs, we've had a lot of snow this winter so they have been busy.. I wouldn't use it on stonechips.




Kind regards,

Ebbe

 

Okay, who do I pay and how much? :doh:
