Aquartz Iron Cut
I will be detailing my car next week while on vacation. Finally decided to take on the adventure myself since it will give me something to do while on vacation. I was just wondering on the cheapest place to pick up some Iron Cut since it seems everyone is using it and I haven't read any negative reviews on it. Thanks!

Any difference between Iron Cut, Iron X, and Wolf's WF-1P Deironizer?

some work faster, some are thicker, however they all do the same thing.

It appears that you guys use Iron Cut most (all?) of the time.

What would make you choose one or the other for a particular job or is it just the particular detailer's personal preference? Sorry for being so inquisitive.

The best way to test it out would be to pick one and try it this time and buy the other one next time and try that product and see it for yourself.  |

In my recent post I've been talking about doing a paint cleaner application (zymol HD Cleanse) via porter cable...possibly no claying involved. Do I need this Iron Cut? I've heard many people talking about it...just never understood the need for it.

sure the iron cut/decon step is not necessary for all situations, however does help ease up the clay process.

Maybe I'll give it a try for my winter-prep detail..
Can it be used on alloy wheels too?

yes it can be, but I still favor Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner.

Has anyone tried the Iron X Snow Soap: http://www.autogeek.net/carpro-snow-soap.html ?
Looks like it combines Iron X and soap, saving you one step in the washing process.
