Iron Decon Comparison
Are there any comparisons to the various iron decon (i.e. IronX) products out there? I'm leaning towards McKees at this point since I borrowed a friend's for a test and it seems to work well. I like to buy gallons and McKee's is $79. I'm also open to buying a litre of IronX at $33 if it is compellingly superior to others.

I have found McKee's to be superior for products you can get off the Internet. I know of one better product but you have to buy it off the truck.

The mckees iron remover is better than the carpro iron x? Man I hope so because it's cheaper and i need to get some so that just seems smart to me.

Re: Iron Decon Comparison
I don't think I have seen a recent comparison. In 2014 Todd did one that iron x was still the best but mckees wasn't out then either.
One would hope that since mckees came out many years later it would have some advantages. But you just never know.
They are both 20 bucks for 16 oz retail as of today's date on autogeek so no price savings. BRitemax and BDX are cheaper they all do the same thing pretty much just one may work faster or more thorough than the other

What about the Poorboy's version? I used it this past weekend and it seemed to do the job also.

Re: Iron Decon Comparison
My guess is that they are all mostly the same and use the same chemical or chemicals to achieve the color change and iron dissolving. I've been searching for the magic explanation on how this works but haven't found the patent or patents yet.
I was successful in finding the patent for SiO2-related coatings and posted it here: https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum...ownership.html

Re: Iron Decon Comparison
Realistically if they all do the same thing then the cheapest would proably be the smartest route. Now if you have to go over everything 2x with the cheaper then it's not really cheaper but that's rather obvious. I would think the ironx is dang legit but at a $1 an ounce that's some pricey stuff but I guess if ones prices are set accordingly then you should be factored in. So much to learn about in the industry for a new guy trying to start out.
