CarPro IronX is an acid-free iron fallout remover with a pH-balanced (pH 7) formula. It breaks down ferrous contamination 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. This is the cherry-scented version.

  • Dissolves embedded iron fallout
  • Colour change shows it working
  • Acid-free and pH-balanced
  • Cleans deeper than clay alone
  • Safe on coatings and PPF
  • For paint, wheels and glass
  • Stops rust spots forming
  • Will not stain chrome wheels

Full Description

CarPro IronX is an acid-free iron fallout remover with a pH-balanced (pH 7) formula. It breaks down ferrous contamination 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. This is the cherry-scented version.

Spray it on and the iron turns purple-red as it reacts, so you can see the contamination lifting. IronX can be used on paint, plastic, chrome, glass and alloy wheels, and CarPro US says it does not affect CarPro sealants or CQUARTZ coatings. Sizes: 500ml, 1L and 4L.

Expert Notes

Iron fallout from brakes and rail dust bakes into paint and wheels, where it can rust and roughen the surface. IronX dissolves it chemically, which is why CarPro says it cleans deeper than washing or claying alone.

Use it as part of the prep before polishing or coating, and as maintenance on a coated car: CarPro US says it will not affect CarPro sealants or CQUARTZ coatings, and suggests about twice a year.

CarPro US explains why the low viscosity matters: too thick and the thickeners slow the reaction with iron, too thin and the reaction is too short, leaving iron behind.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Paintwork
  • Alloy wheels
  • Chrome
  • Glass
  • Plastic
  • PPF and clear bra

Caution: Do not use on anodised surfaces, unknown aftermarket finishes or low-cost acrylic paint. Take care near calipers with low-quality paint.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I leave IronX on?

Wash the surface first, spray it on and wait 3 to 5 minutes while the contamination turns purple-red. Rub in with a damp soft sponge and rinse well.

Why does IronX turn purple?

The colour change is the reaction with iron: IronX forms a water-soluble complex with the iron particles so they can be rinsed away.

Is IronX safe on ceramic coatings?

Yes. CarPro US says it will not affect CarPro sealants or CQUARTZ coatings and is designed for use on coatings.

Can I use IronX on wheels?

Yes. CarPro says it can be used on paint, plastic, chrome, glass and alloy wheels. CarPro US says not to use it on anodised surfaces.

Does IronX remove tar?

No. CarPro US says it reacts only with iron. For iron and tar in one step, CarPro makes TriX.

What is the difference between IronX and IronX LS?

Both are CarPro IronX iron removers. This is the cherry-scented IronX. IronX LS is the lemon-scented version.

HQ Suggests Tips & Insights

  1. Wash first so IronX can reach the iron in the surface.
  2. Use it on the wheels too, where brake dust bakes on.
  3. CarPro US suggests decontaminating about twice a year, or more often if iron builds up.
  4. Rinse thoroughly and dry the car afterwards.
  5. Lead wheel weights may turn green, and light agitation brings the colour back.
  6. Keep it off fabric convertible tops and rubber made from recycled tyres.
  7. Remove the nozzle and refit the cap after use to avoid leaks.

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.
