CarPro IronX Paste is a paste version of IronX that clings to surfaces for longer. Its pH-balanced (pH 7) formula breaks down iron fallout from brakes, rail travel and construction by forming a water-soluble complex with the iron, so it rinses away and cleans deeper than washing or claying alone.

  • Clings for a longer dwell time
  • Targets stubborn brake dust spots
  • Acid-free and pH-balanced
  • A little goes a long way
  • Cleans deeper than clay alone
  • For paint and alloy wheels
  • Helps prevent iron damage
  • Safe on chrome and clear coat

Full Description

CarPro IronX Paste is a paste version of IronX that clings to surfaces for longer. Its pH-balanced (pH 7) formula breaks down iron fallout from brakes, rail travel and construction by forming a water-soluble complex with the iron, so it rinses away and cleans deeper than washing or claying alone.

The paste clings to vertical surfaces, so it keeps working on stubborn iron and brake dust spots, and a little spreads a long way. IronX can be used on paint, plastic, chrome, glass and alloy wheels. This is the 150ml size.

Expert Notes

IronX Paste is the answer when spray IronX runs off before it has finished working. As a paste it clings and keeps reacting, which CarPro US says suits stubborn iron and brake dust spots.

It is the same pH-balanced, acid-free IronX formula, so the same surfaces apply: paint, plastic, chrome, glass and alloy wheels.

CarPro US says the paste is more concentrated than IronX spray and was developed to hold tight to vertical surfaces and attack thick deposits, spot-removing build-up that traditional iron removers cannot.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Paintwork
  • Alloy wheels
  • Chrome
  • Glass
  • Plastic

Caution: Do not let it dry in direct sun. Avoid skin contact.

How To Use

Apply

  1. Apply to the contaminated areas with a wash mitt or foam applicator, on a still-damp surface.
  2. Wait 5 to 6 minutes in the shade for the full reaction.

Agitate and rinse

  1. Agitate if needed with a damp, paint-safe sponge.
  2. Rinse thoroughly with water, or on stubborn spots let it dwell a little longer first.
  3. Do not let it dry in direct sun.

Top Tip: Use the paste where a spray would run off, such as vertical panels and wheel faces, so it stays on long enough to react.

  • Removes embedded iron fallout
  • Shows contamination visually
  • Targets brake dust

The Brand

CarPro

CarPro is the car care brand behind CQUARTZ, one of the ceramic coatings that brought nano-protection from professional detailing studios to everyday enthusiasts. Founded in 2009 by car enthusiasts, CarPro develops and makes its products in its own laboratory and factory, and it has grown from a single coating into a complete system for paint, glass, wheels, tyres, plastics, leather and fabric.

The range is built to work together. The shampoos and snow foams clean a coated car without leaving gloss enhancers or silicones that would mask the coating, and the compounds and polishes are body shop safe, with no fillers to hide defects. The same products suit a first-time coating at home and the upkeep of a professional CQUARTZ installation.

At The Drivers HQ we stock the CarPro products our customers use most, from Reset shampoo and IronX fallout remover to the CQ UK 3.0 coating, with much of the range on the shelf at our Ilkeston shop.

The CarPro range: prepare, protect, maintain

CarPro organises its products around the order you work on a car, which makes it easy to build a kit that suits your car and the time you have.

Prepare. Clean and decontaminate first. Lift is a concentrated pre-wash snow foam, IronX dissolves iron fallout with an acid-free, pH-balanced formula and turns purple-red as it works, and TRIX removes iron and tar in one go. For paint correction, ClearCut takes out scratches as deep as P1000, Fixer cuts and finishes in a single step, and Reflect refines the finish before a coating. Eraser then removes polishing oils so the coating can bond.

Protect. CQ UK 3.0 is CarPro's consumer ceramic coating: 70% SiO2, applied from 3 to 40°C and rated for 18 to 24 months. There are dedicated coatings for film and plastic trim (CQUARTZ Skin), glass (GForce, built on CarPro's DQUARTZ nano-diamond technology) and leather (CQuartz Leather 2.0), plus quicker options such as HydrO2, a spray-on, rinse-off silica sealant rated for up to 6 months.

Maintain. Reset is the pH-neutral shampoo made for coated cars and dilutes 1:500. Hydro Foam washes and leaves a silica layer in one step, ECH2O is a waterless wash and quick detailer, and MFX restores the absorbency of your microfibre towels.

Shop CarPro by type: ceramic coatings, snow foam, iron and fallout removers, compounds and polishes, paint sealants and glass coatings.

Where to start with CarPro

New to CarPro? Start with the products that make the biggest difference to a normal wash: Reset, Lift and a pair of Dilute bottles, which have printed ratios from 1:1 to 1:30 so every concentrate is mixed correctly. WheelX is the CarPro product our customers buy most often: a ready-to-use wheel cleaner that is safe on coated, chrome and powder-coated wheels.

Ready to protect your paint? Work in this order:

  • Wash with Lift and Reset, then remove iron fallout with IronX.
  • Polish if the paint needs it, from ClearCut for deeper marks to Reflect for a final finish.
  • Wipe each panel with Eraser and apply CQ UK 3.0 one panel at a time.
  • Keep the coating at its best with Reset and a top-up of HydrO2 or Hydro Foam every few months.

For tyres and trim, DarkSide and Perl are the favourites: Perl dilutes up to 5:1, from a rich finish on tyres to a satin look on plastics, and ReTyre cleans tyres and rubber before you dress them.
