Just got word from the dealer that my car is on its way to the train yard in Toledo. It has been stuck in Lansing for weeks.

I'm in Colorado, anyone know approx how long it takes to travel on the train from Ohio?

4800?

When you get your Order Event History you should be able to see 4200.

Iron x the car when you get it, rail dust is so corrosive......

Looks like its pretty potent stuff...Is it necessary to use the TarX beforehand that is mentioned below or does that really depend on if there is visible tar or gunk on the car first?



FEATURES:
Removes Iron Particles and prevents the spread of iron-related damage & helps to protect your vehicle from paint system failure.
New Formula combines Cherry perfume to aid in masking Iron Dissolving Chemicals
Safe to use, Acid Free, and pH neutral (pH 6-7).
Safe to use on Clear Coat Paint
Safe to use on Aluminum, Chrome, Alloy, or Clear coated wheels.
Safe for use on all solid car surfaces and will not deteriorate clear coats. (Avoid using on Fabric Convertible tops)
DIRECTIONS:
1.-Shake the bottle.

2.-You can cover the surface with Iron X by spraying it everywhere but that can be wasteful. I recommend that you spray as needed and spread it with a small sponge or applicator to cover the entire surface. You may also consider using an atomizer type spray bottle or HVLP gun. In any case evenly cover the surfaces you wish to decontaminate. The product is strong so you don’t have to be wasteful. Just make sure it contacts the entire surface.

3.-Allow the product to dwell for 5 minutes in the shade. Do not allow it to dry in the sun. On light colored paints you will see the product dissolving ferrous particles as it turns color. On darker colored paints everything is happening in exactly the same way. It’s simply more difficult for you to view the color changing affect. I have read people saying the product works better on lighter colored cars but that is illogical and is not the case. It works the same regardless of car color.

4.-After allowing to dwell take a damp (not soaked) grout or other paint safe sponge (or other media if you prefer) and agitate the surface.

5.-Thoroughly rinse the surface.

Don’t forget to rinse your media out also. I like to have a dedicated Iron X sponge but that isn’t necessary.



PRECAUTIONS:
A.-Use outside or with sufficient ventilation.

B.-Use latex or Nitrile gloves, and face protection.

C.-If there is an inordinate amount of tree sap, tar, other organic material, wax, or sealants on the vehicle I recommend you strip them first with TarX so Iron X can attack the ferrous particles without any interference. This is not required but is how I like to do it for best results.

D.-For best results apply to a mostly dry surface. A few drops of water is ok
