Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): 

Q: How do I know it's finished reacting before I rinse, and can I use it at every wash?
A: The colour change from clear to purple/red shows where it's actively dissolving iron particles. Rinse once the reaction has turned colour across the treated surface, typically 3–5 minutes. It's safe for periodic use (monthly or quarterly), not every wash; overuse on bare metal trim can cause mild etching of unprotected surfaces.
Q: How does the colour change work?
A: Reacts with iron contamination (brake dust, industrial fallout), turning red/purple to visually confirm activity.
Q: Why does iron fallout from brake dust need dedicated chemical removal rather than
A: Acid-free, pH-neutral formula; gentler than acid-based removers and notably less offensive odour than competing iron removers.
Q: Is it safe on ceramic-coated paint?
A: Yes, acid-free, pH-neutral, and safe on all painted surfaces including coated vehicles.
Q: Where does it fit in the workflow?
A: After washing, before clay; chemical decontamination first, then mechanical (clay) for complete surface decontamination.
