Holy crap does this stuff stink. I work for a Canadian Railway. I park at work for 11 hours a day with trains constantly going by the parking lot. lots of dust, lube oil, and rail floating around the air from the wheels of the trains grinding the metal away.

I wanted to test a spot on the rear of my car to see if there was a result. My car is dark grey. All I can say, is OMG this product stinks, and I mean super strong. you have to use it outdoors. LOL....Anyways, I wish my camera was charged, because even on the dark colour the purple popped out like something I have never seen before.

I am waiting for a geek order to show up next week, then I will detail the car and take pics of how much this stuff works, even on my dark color.

but at least you car is free from irons now...

Yes, it does smell stinky. I liken it to a mild rotten eggs odor. Unfortunately on my dark blue car, I can't visually see it do its thing, but I know it's working.

Doesnt smell great by any means but the smell is worth the results.

We really need a FAQ section on the boards about things like this.

I haven't used a respirator but the labeling stating the product smells like squash flower is a lie.

Some things I do to become somewhat de-sensitized before I use IronX:

1.) Visit a local Beauty Salon and sit by the hairdryers on "Perm Day"
2.) Clean the bathrooms at home from top to bottom with Mr. Clean Top-Job with the doors closed and the exhaust fans off
3.) Keep my vehicle's windows up, and the doors closed, while spraying my favorite blue-colored window cleaner.


^^J/K.....Some urea inspired humor, to be taken with a grain of (ammoniate) salt. :)


Note:[/U]Speaking of color-changing....{and PLEASE don't do any of the following}, but, if.....

You wanna see some really vivid colors before you're overcome by toxic fumes and possibly meet the 'Grim Reaper', then:

-Mix some Comet with SnoBowl toilet cleaner; or,
-Throw some Chlorox Bleach on top of your Mr. Clean-soaked cleaning cloths already pre-soaking in your washing machine.

In other words...[U]NEVER, EVER mix products containing ammonia(in any form) with products containing any "bleaches" (such as: sodium hypochlorite or calcium hypochlorite.

Nothing like chloramine gas to light up the day, I say.

MSDS's are quite often a man' and a woman's best friends.
Good idea, IMO, to follow IronX's as well.

Maybe a rotting squash flower that was pooped on and vinegar poured on top of?

It's not horrible...it's freaking dreadful smelling.

When I think of squash flowers/blossoms, (and some of the 'tasty' food dishes made from them), growing up on a farm comes to mind, breathing in some of that "fresh country air".

Fresh country air inundated and mixed with the aromas of the many different farm animals' urea-filled-excretions, that is. :D

Surely that's not what the product label is referring to, or is it? :confused:

If your "fresh country air" was right next to a toxic waste plant, than sure.
