Expert Notes

TriX is for when a car needs both iron and tar removed in one pass. CarPro keeps IronX and TarX as the dedicated products, and TriX combines them to streamline the detail.

CarPro says customers favour it for the rapid deep cleaning of alloy wheels. Finish with a shampoo wash and a thorough rinse, as CarPro directs, rather than just rinsing.

CarPro made TriX for time-pressed enthusiasts and professional detailers alike, and CarPro US also lists it as an excellent wheel cleaner and a strong degreaser.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Alloy wheels
  • Paintwork
  • Most exterior vehicle surfaces

Caution: Avoid polycarbonate headlights, clear bra and sensitive plastics or rubber. Do not let it dry, and avoid direct sun.
