Rail Dust removal on new vehicle?

[Skrilla]

Just picked up my new truck, and noticed it has some rail dust on it. Very hard to spot, just familiar with this being visible on a white vehicle. Anyways, the dealer offered to take it to a body shop they use to remove it. However, I have had some very bad issues with this body shop, and the dealer, and in order to avoid the hassle, and making sure it is done, I was thinking I could do it myself.

Does anyone know of a product or cleaner I can use, scrub on the truck like soap that will remove this? Years ago when I worked at a dealership they had a chemical they would use, but no longer do this service. I know its not just on white, but for some reason, now that I have seen it, it is on my mind.

Any help would be great, thanks!

Iron-X will remove it quite well. I had a white vehicle covered in rail rust (fallout), and it came out perfectly.

I have not been able to find it locally and it is currently sold out on eshine.ca, but google is your friend.

Other then that, a claybar will also take it out, but it can be a lot of work if it is a large area.

I'd highly, highly recommend Iron-X. This stuff worked wonders on our white Lexus and is extremely easy to use.

It just smells :barf: lol. I purchased mine through Auto Obsessed....highly recommended BTW!

Ya, I would almost recommend wearing a mask with iron-x.... it is not healthy to be inhaling.

Iron-X works great!!! But make sure you either:

1) Make sure your driveway is completely wet, otherwise Iron-X may stain it. Even better, have water running below your car so it'll rinse off the driveway as you apply Iron-X.

2) Move your car on to the road and apply it there (even more illegal than the option 1).

While you are at it, you can also apply Tar-X.
