How to Remove Iron Particles?
2 Answers
After iron particles accumulate on a car, it is necessary to take it to a professional car cleaning shop for treatment. During daily use, or even when the car is stationary, iron particles can adhere to the paint surface. If left uncleaned for a long time, these particles can erode the car's paint, significantly affecting its appearance. Here are the specific steps for removal: 1. Use a paste-type iron particle remover: Before removing the iron particles, it is recommended to clean the surface to avoid wastage. When applying the remover, spray it on the areas with iron particles, preferably in small amounts to prevent waste. Note that wheels are common hotspots for iron particle accumulation and are often heavily contaminated. For cleaning, it is advisable to use a paste-type iron particle remover because of its high viscosity, which allows it to adhere to the surface for an extended period and work effectively, thereby improving efficiency. 2. Use a brush for cleaning: It is recommended to use a brush during the cleaning process. The brush can enhance efficiency and help clean every detail of the tires and the car body more thoroughly. After cleaning, rinse with water as soon as possible to prevent any residue from the cleaner, which could otherwise affect the car and its appearance.
To remove iron particles from the car paint surface, my most common method is to buy a dedicated iron particle remover. This product is extremely easy to use. First, rinse the car clean, shake the bottle well, and then spray it onto the paint surface. Wait for about three to five minutes until you see a purple reaction, which indicates it's working—the iron particles oxidize and turn a very noticeable purplish-red. Then, simply rinse it off with a high-pressure water gun. For stubborn areas, you can gently scrub with a sponge. Finally, be sure to apply a coat of wax, as this helps prevent new iron particles from adhering. I do this every quarter, and parking away from industrial areas can reduce iron particle buildup, especially at spots where you brake hard at traffic lights, which are particularly prone to accumulating iron particles.
