Iron-X eats it's bottle

[DetailKitty]

Anyone else have issues with their Iron-X bottles leaking?
Every single bottle I've owned has ended up leaking and I've had to throw it out.

Just happened again yesterday... came home and my garage smelled like rotten eggs... I knew right away it was the Iron-X. Had to throw the remainder of the bottle out.

I noticed this too but I noticed it was leaking hrough the sprayer. Not sure if it was at the connection to the bottle or the spray nozzle but it would leak even if the nozzle spray was set to off and the gasket on the bottle / sprayer was in place.

The solution I've found is to keep the seal top that ships with it, remove the sprayer, empty the sprayer and rinse it after I"m done by spraying pure water through it. I then store the sprayer off the sealed bottle and simply install it upon use again.

Zero issues since. IMO it seems to be building up pressure and seeping out or something. I no longer see issues.

Interesting... I may try this first and see what happens. I have a new bottle not opened yet that's fine, so I'll keep the sprayer off it for the time being.
Thx for the tip!

I have a bottle I bought about 2 years ago and have not had any issues with the bottle or the sprayer leaking. First time I hear someone with this problem.

Had it been the first time I wouldn't think anything of it, but it's seriously been every bottle.

I haven't had an issue with IronX leaking either from the spray bottle or the 1 liter refill. I wonder if it might have something to do with temperature? Do you store it in relatively climate controlled area?

Did it get warmer today than it has been? Sounds like maybe extreme temperature change might be part of the problem??

Nope.
I bought a bottle and a big refill at the same time. Within three months of them being released.
No leaks at all. And I have refilled the spray bottle at least five times.
