Expert Analysis
Uses ammonium mercaptoacetate as the primary active ingredient at 20-40% concentration to break down iron particles through chemical chelation. The pH-neutral formulation (7.5) provides effective decontamination while maintaining compatibility with sensitive wheel finishes and surrounding surfaces like clear coats and glass.
Key Differentiators
- •High concentration thioglycolate active (20-40%) for effective iron removal
- •pH-neutral formulation safe on clear coats, glass, and painted surfaces
Potential Concerns
- ⚠Warning label indicates potential health hazards during use
- ⚠Limited surfactant system may require more agitation for heavy soil removal
- ⚠May be too strong for regular maintenance washing
