FAQs

How often should I use this product?

Frequency depends on driving conditions and environmental exposure. A good practice is to use it during routine wheel cleaning or before applying paint protection.

Can I use this on matte finish wheels?

Yes, it is safe for most wheel finishes. However, it is always recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area first, especially with specialized finishes like matte.

What is the dwell time for this product?

Typically, allow the product to dwell for 5-10 minutes. The exact time can vary depending on temperature and the level of contamination. Do not let it dry on the surface.

Do I need to wear protective gear?

While the product is pH neutral, it is still a chemical cleaner. Wearing gloves and eye protection is recommended during application and handling.

Can the pump sprayer be used for other chemicals?

The sprayer can be used for other automotive cleaning solutions or gardening purposes, but it must be thoroughly rinsed with clean water between uses with different chemical types to prevent cross-contamination.

What should I do if the product gets on my skin?

Rinse the affected area immediately with plenty of water. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.

Is this product biodegradable?

Information regarding biodegradability is not provided in the product description.

Troubleshooting

Sprayer not building pressure

Ensure the pump mechanism is fully assembled and the seal is intact. Check that the intake hose is submerged in the liquid. Operate the pump handle briskly.

Product not changing color

This may indicate a lack of iron contamination or that the contamination is not iron-based. Ensure the product is applied to a clean, dry surface and allow adequate dwell time.

Stubborn contamination remains after rinsing

For very heavy contamination, a second application may be necessary. Agitation with a soft brush or wash mitt during the dwell time can also help loosen stubborn grime.

White residue left after drying

This is likely dried product residue. Thoroughly rinse the area again with water. Ensure no product was allowed to dry on the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the 3L garden pump sprayer is clean and free of any previous contents.
  2. Carefully pour the Pro-Kleen Iron Contamination Remover from its 5L bottle into the pump sprayer's reservoir, avoiding overfilling.
  3. Securely fasten the pump mechanism and spray handle.
  4. Prime the pump by operating the handle several times until resistance is felt and the sprayer is pressurized.

Compatibility:

  • Wheels: Safe for all types of wheel finishes, including painted, polished, chrome, and anodized. Always test on an inconspicuous area first if unsure.
  • Paintwork: Safe for clear coats and automotive paint.
  • Glass & Metal: Suitable for automotive glass and bare metal components.

Care:

  • Product Storage: Store the remover in its original container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed.
  • Sprayer Care: After each use, thoroughly rinse the pump sprayer with clean water. Pump clean water through the system and nozzle to clear any residue. Store the sprayer with the pump mechanism slightly loosened to release pressure and prevent seal degradation.
  • Surface Care: Always rinse surfaces completely after using the remover to prevent residue buildup. Avoid allowing the product to dry on treated surfaces.
