IRON DISSOLVES IN MINUTES AFTER SPRAYING ON THE HERMOSA IRON REMOVER!
We use our cars on track days where brakes are red hot and a set of brake pads can get eaten in 2-3 track days. The amount of iron produced is amazing and burns into the paintwork and PPF film.
Hermosa Iron Remover dissolves these nasty contaminants and keeps your pride and joy-looking showroom clean.
Iron Removal without worrying about damaging your paintwork.
OUR ADVANCED FORMULA DISSOLVES EMBEDDED IRON FILINGS AND TURNS RED UPON ACTIVATION
Hermosa Iron Remover is specially formulated to effectively dissolve and remove iron particles embedded in your vehicle's surface, particularly brake dust and other metallic contaminants.
Its key feature is its ability to chemically react with iron particles, causing them to dissolve and turn red/purple upon contact.
This colour change indicates that the iron remover is actively breaking down the contaminants, making them easier to rinse away.
What are customers saying about Hermosa Iron Remover?
Sinate from @enhance_detailer
So satisfying to use. Brings out all the iron and so easy to remove. As it brings up the colour it's showing how effective it is. Overall smells delicious too so that's a bonus compared to other chemical products. Highly recommend!"
What’s in Hermosa Iron Remover?
The formulation of the Hermosa Iron Remover comprises essential ingredients to effectively dissolve and eliminate iron contaminants.
Ammonium thioglycolate, constituting 15-25%, serves as the primary reactive agent, breaking down iron particles.
Aksu Penetrant, at 1-5%, enhances the remover's ability to penetrate and loosen stubborn deposits.
The remaining portion consists of non-hazardous components, balancing the formulation for safety and efficacy.
Together, these ingredients work synergistically to chemically react with iron particles, allowing their removal from the vehicle's surface.
This formulation ensures thorough cleaning and restoration, leaving the car looking pristine and revitalised.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, most car iron removers are formulated to be safe for use on various surfaces, including paint, glass, chrome, and wheels.
However, it's essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions and perform a spot test in an inconspicuous area before widespread application.
The frequency of use depends on factors such as driving conditions and the buildup of iron contaminants.
Generally, using an iron remover every 3-6 months or as needed is recommended to maintain the vehicle's cleanliness and protect its paintwork.
While car iron removers are highly effective at removing iron particles, they may not eliminate all types of contaminants.
For instance, tar, sap, and other non-ferrous contaminants may require different cleaning methods or specific products tailored to their removal.
When used according to the manufacturer's instructions, car iron removers are safe for automotive paint.
However, prolonged exposure or improper application could potentially cause damage, emphasising the importance of following directions carefully and avoiding contact with sensitive areas.
Car iron removers are designed to target iron particles without significantly impacting wax or ceramic coatings.
However, it's advisable to reapply protective coatings after using an iron remover to ensure continued protection against environmental contaminants and UV damage.
We recommend using Hermosa Ceramic Shampoo or the Hermosa Ceramic Spray after the Iron Remover to ensure the paintwork and existing coatings are kept in optimal condition.
