so I received a sample of the New Nanolex Wheel Cleaner & Iron remover.
the test-object: the wheels of my Peugeot Company car.
I chose these ones because these are now 2 years old and have never been cleaned, maybe an occasional carwash before it was mine, but I doubt it, let alone a true iron remover.
These are the type of wheels I would most likely use an Iron remover on, or you will get when customers bring their car to you. you won`t be getting a well-looked-after or even seales wheel.
First Claim:
Nanolex Wheel cleaner & iron remover reduces the need to agitate the surface
So I decided to test this claim by spraying a wheel with the product and let 1 side sit as it was, and the other side was agitated.
To start with

sprayed on and immediatly taken a picture. as you can see, it starts to bleed very fast.

half agitated

and rinsed down after 2 minutes:

As you can see it did an amazing job, with only 2 minutes dwell time, and the non-agitated side didn`t underperform.
Claim: True
Second claim:
Nanolex is an iron remover
So I decided to test this to Carpro TRIX.
I was going to do an non-agitated test and an agitated test, but after the first test, the sprayer of the TRIX broke down...
To start with:
https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3881/15051970225_b7855c1a5e_z.jpg
Both sprayed on the wheel and let dwell for 2 minutes; No agitation
https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5574/15048918761_bbeaa30698_z.jpg
rinsed down:
https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3884/14865305660_a58dbe6efb_z.jpg
You can clearly see that TRIX was no match for the Nanolex. The nanolex product did a better job in removing iron without agitation
Claim 2: True
So this was a test against an iron remover, but the new Nanolex product clearly stated that it is a wheel Cleaner and Iron remover. So I decided to test it to another product that is both of these: Wolf`s Chemicals De-Ironizer
To start with:
https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3911/14865305970_ae5043751e_z.jpg
sprayed on the wheel and agitated:
https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3863/15051970045_1156dcf187_z.jpg
https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5560/14865417347_02338225e1_z.jpg
You can see that the Nanolex reacts quicker ( no surprise there), and that the Wolf`s turns brown-ish after agitation.
Rinsed down after 2 minutes:

It was a close call, and it might be difficult to see, but the Nanolex did a better job then the Wolf`s here. mostly in the curves...
Conclusion:
The new Nanolex Wheel Cleaner and Iron Remover did an amazing job and truely is both a Wheel Cleaner and a dedicated Iron Remover in one.
It also meets it`s claim that it reduces ( dare I say eliminates) the need to agitate the surface.
on a little side note, this probably wasn`t the real packaging and spray head, but the only correction I`d make is a spray head that gives a bit of a wider spray. This was just a little to direct, leading to a strong stream, making it harder to spray the whole wheel.
c & c always welcome
