Full Description

Autobead Iron Remover safely removes ferrous metal contamination from wheels and bodywork, and you can see it work as it bleeds colour on the surface. The pH neutral, gel-based formula is safe for all exterior surfaces and combines strong performance with extended cling time.

It is an essential step in chemical decontamination. The formula bonds to sintered iron contamination and changes it to a water soluble state, so it rinses away easily. Use it on a washed and dried car, on surfaces that are cool to the touch.

Expert Notes

Iron fallout embeds in paint and wheels, and a normal wash will not remove it. Autobead Iron Remover bonds to the iron and turns it water soluble, so it rinses off.

The colour change is the useful part. It shows you where the contamination is, so you can agitate the worst areas before rinsing.

Autobead calls it an essential product for the chemical decontamination stage. Its pH neutral gel clings for longer, which gives it time to work on wheels and paint, and it is safe on all exterior surfaces.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Paintwork
  • Alloy wheels
  • All exterior surfaces

Caution: Apply to cool, clean surfaces and do not let the product dry. Rinse thoroughly.

  1. Spray directly onto the wheel or panel and watch it react.
  2. Agitate to remove the most stubborn iron, without letting it dry.
  3. Rinse thoroughly to remove all the product.
