Iron X Meets Neglected Civic
I got together with a friend of mine after work yesterday and did a little polishing on his poor Civic that had only been washed once in three years. This car has never been garaged and sits outside 24/7/365.
The paint was faded and chalky on all the horizontal panels, and splotchy on the vertical panels. Overall it was in pretty rough shape and needed a little TLC. Unfortunately my camera died shortly after washing it with Iron X, however I did get some excellent bleeding shots.
I've used Iron X on several different vehicles and I've never had it interact as quickly as it did on this Civic. Immediately after spraying the surface it started to change color.
If you're not familiar with Iron X, it's a iron remover that decontaminates paint and wheels. It opens up the pores in the paint and allows the removal of ferrous iron particles. If you're working on a neglected finish or a vehicle that sits outside 24/7, Iron X should be an essential step before claying or polishing.

what do you want to do?
Iron x is a must if you own a white car imo
I use it and my car is black. No cool pics for me but I trust it is working...
The iron x soap gel is less concentrated and is more for maintenance type washes...
C quartz is one of those permanent coating products
Perl is a protectant concentrate that can be diluted different ways for rubber, leather, engine etc
it's all good!

I hope Phil will carry the Wolf's decon gel in gallon portions and I hope it is cheaper then Iron X.
However, $125 for 5 liters of Iron X is not too bad.... plus the 10% discount is nice too. 5 liters would go a LONG LONG way.... especially if you are only working on your own cars.
