How long does a Iron-x bottle last you?

[aburgeson]

I want to figure out how many vehicles i can do with a 500ml bottle of ironx. This way I can see how much it really is costing me per vehicle. For this discussion lets assume is a mid sized sedan. I know large SUVs will take more product. I also should state that I work on mostly DD cars. Any help would be appreciated as Ironx seems to be killing my budget haha

It's expensive to use no doubt. Keep in mind that you must generously apply it. Not too sure how many cars you can get out of a 500ml bottle. Maybe 2-3. Probably not 3

I say MAYBE 2 midsize sedans or 1.5 SUV's. I'd plan on a whole bottle for a large SUV like a suburban.

I really don't think it has to be applied generously at all. I find light application works well for me??

I think BDX is a little less expensive at 16.99 for 24 oz. I tried the BDX on my wheels the other day. Great stuff.

I've been thinking a lot about IronX lately.

Honestly: is this even required in the process? Have there ever been any tests or even unscientific comparisons of a car that was decontaminated with IronX + clay/nanoskin and one that was decontaminated solely with claying? Even if statistically different, does the use of IronX result in any improvements in outcome (compounding, polish, wax/sealant/coating bonding)?

I mean: sure, it looks purty on white cars, and it's obviously doing something.

Worth it?

I use about 300-350ml on a midsize sedan even while agitating and spreading with a wash mitt. So not quite 2 cars per. bottle for me. On larger trucks and SUV's I use all 500ml.

The less contaminates, the better the LSP bond. It's logic but on the other hand with beauty being in the eye of the beholder some folks just don't need a decon step.

What about using a wheel cleaner that turns purple bought by the gallon? For example, Wolfgang Uber Wheel Cleaner turns purple, and is $89.99 per gallon before any discounts.

Can't stand the smell bought it once never again.If I get a car that's really rough I will use diluted wheel acid basically same product.Down here in south fla I do about 10 acid washes per year.Sprinkler water over glass and paint. When the snow birds come these condos have a sprinkler wash to rinse the salt from the ocean .these cars are so messed up I tell people you're doing more harm than good.fyi never use any acid on windshield learned the hard way about 18 years ago.
