Default Iron-X From Polished Bliss *Fantastic*

Car was snow foamed, Then given the two Bucket method and towel dried. Then given a good coating of Iron-X to decontaminate the paint followed by claying the painted surface then given 3 coats of carnuba wax.

Here are a few photos, I just cant get over how bad the car looked when it was applied

The Iron-X

On my list of things to get, looks as though it does a good job.

Stunning motor, not a huge fan of the hatch but that's spot on.

When I did mine I didn't have much expectations that it would do much after I washed it but was lost for words when I saw how bad my paint work was.

just wash the car first, then simply spray onto the paintwork and gently rub in with a damp cloth if you wish then leave it 5 minutes and jet wash off.

there wasnt allot on the claybar afterwards so it must be good stuff

I like iron x as it shows a rection but its expensive 13 quid for 1ltr

I use Autosmart fallout remover it costs 13 quid for 5 litres and can be diluted but does the same job as iron x but you dont see the reaction - it melts your lungs like iron x does

white looks stunning really like that
