Looking for a product that can remove brake dust checking out the iron x or dbx anyone have used this products. how did it go? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
I've always liked the Meguires Hot Rims rim cleaner. Worked well for my rims in the past. Have ceramic brakes now so I don't have to worry about that.
I have used iron X in the past, and was really pleased with the results. I still found the car needed a clay bar treatment afterward to get other contamination out of the paint, but the Iron X helped a lot.Quote:

+++1 on this. This product is fantastic !! I literally swear by this product. You can get it from e-Shine. A few things to note on this stuff as far as usage is concerned;Quote:

Basic directions
- wash car really well and dry
- make sure paint is cool to the touch before using
-do N O T let this stuff dry on your paint
- spray liberally on paint with extra sprays on visible areas
- let it sit on paint for about a minute
- while solution is sitting on paint, use the large sponge (cut 1” squares with xActto knife into one side of sponge) and lightly run it back n forth over the paint and do this while paint is soaking. Do not rub hard !!!
- you’ll know u have rail dust on car if the solution turns purple
- areas where purple is darkest may need extra application after first rinse
- once car has been caressed with sponge, rinse off thoroughly....and I mean THOROUGHLY (be sure to rinse well around trims, badges, chrome trim areas, roof rack guide rails, etc)
- dry off car
- proceed to the clay stage as per S.F.W recommended
Any other ?’S shoot me a pm and I’ll help you out
