This unique formula is strong enough to remove this tough contamination, yet gentle and pH neutral. This means Gyeon Iron will make quick work of caked-on brake and rail dust, while being safe to apply on your paint, wheels, trim, glass, etc. To apply, start with a cool wet surface and simply spray this product onto the desired area, letting it dwell. After about 60 seconds you will see the formula change to a deep purple. This illustrates that the formula is reacting and removing the deposits that are on the surface or embedded in the finish! Follow up with a rinse and you are all set. What you will be left with is a clean surface, free of iron and brake dust! Remember to never let the product dry on the surface and to thoroughly rinse or wash off once finished. For any heavily soiled areas, we recommend multiple applications and\/or agitating with your favorite detailing brush. Grab yourself a bottle of the Gyeon Iron, brake dust won&#8217;t thank you, but your car certainly will!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I tested the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Gyeon-M91\/Iron-P1419\/500-ml-S1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gyeon Iron<\/a> product on a few different wheels as well as paint and it performed really well.\u00a0 It was definitely a product that impressed right away and worked really well.\u00a0 The wheels below of which I took pictures don&#8217;t look too dirty but they had a lot of small tar and iron contamination, as expected on an Audi.\u00a0 For these photos I decided to show how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Gyeon-M91\/Iron-P1419\/500-ml-S1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gyeon Iron<\/a> works without any brushes and mitts, simply spraying it on the wheel, allowing it to break down the deposits, then rinsing off.\u00a0

href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Gyeon-M91\/Iron-P1419\/500-ml-S1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gyeon Iron<\/a> removed almost everything that was on there and I was very impressed.\u00a0 There was a few stubborn specks that needed clay bar but it definitely worked as well as or better than the stuff we currently use.\u00a0 After going through the bottle on multiple vehicles I decided to dig a bit more into comparing it with the Meguiar&#8217;s and CarPro products we had in bulk.<\/p>\n<p>As a shop we buy bigger containers of everything we use regularly, so the gallon or 4L in this case.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Meguiars-M43\/Wheel-Paint-Iron-Decon-D1801-P1794\/128-oz-S1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Meguiar&#8217;s Iron Decon<\/a> is around $0.63 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/CarPro-M53\/IronX-Iron-Remover-P600\/5-L-S3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CarPro IronX<\/a> $0.74 per ounce. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Gyeon-M91\/Iron-P1419\/500-ml-S1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u00a0Gyeon Iron<\/a> comes in around $.81\/oz, so it&#8217;s the most expensive of them all.\u00a0 Overall the price is just about the same compared to IronX when buying bulk as it&#8217;s only a $10 difference for a 4 Liter container, but definitely noticeably higher than Meguiar&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>I would have to do a lot more testing and possibly even testing that I&#8217;m not capable of in order to compare these 3 and say if one is better over the other, worth the extra cost, etc.\u00a0 From my experience <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Gyeon-M91\/Iron-P1419\/500-ml-S1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gyeon Iron<\/a> is definitely worth the price and it will be in my rotation of iron removers alongside of IronX and Meguiar&#8217;s.\u00a0 I doubt anyone will be disappointed with the great performance or slighly higher price so if you&#8217;re on the fence about it I have no problem recommending it.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll leave you with a photo where I sprayed one of the wheels a second time after letting it sit for 3-4 minutes.\u00a0 You can clearly see how much stuff was stuck on the surface!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
