Iron Buster is a powerful, pH-balanced iron remover that targets and dissolves embedded ferrous contaminants from your vehicle’s wheels and paint. Ideal for both routine maintenance and deep decontamination, this color-changing formula reveals a cleaner, smoother surface ready for polishing or protection.
Key Features & Benefits
🔹 Color-Changing Formula – Turns purple upon contact with iron particles, making contamination easy to identify and rinse away.
🔹 Safe on Wheels and Paint – pH-balanced chemistry is safe for clear coat, polished metals, and modern wheel finishes.
🔹 Fast-Acting & Effective – Dissolves brake dust, rail dust, and industrial fallout within minutes.
🔹 No Pre-Wash Required for Wheels – Just spray and watch the magic happen—perfect for quick jobs or busy detailers.
How to Use
Step 1: For paint, wash and dry the surface before application. For wheels, no pre-wash is necessary.
Step 2: Spray a generous amount of Iron Buster directly onto the painted surface and/or wheels.
Step 3: Allow to dwell for 2–5 minutes. The product will turn purple as it reacts with iron particles.
Step 4: Rinse thoroughly with clean water using a hose or pressure washer.
Step 5: Repeat if necessary for stubborn contamination.
💡 Pro Tip: For maximum results, follow up with a clay bar or clay mitt after rinsing to remove any remaining bonded contaminants.
Dilution Ratios
This product is ready to use – no dilution required.
Why We Love It (From the CSW Team)
“At Car Supplies Warehouse, we love Iron Buster because it takes the guesswork out of decontamination. You literally see the iron being removed in real-time. It’s a huge time-saver and a customer favorite in both our shop and DIY garage. Pair it with a foam cannon pre-wash for the ultimate decon routine.”
