About Bilt Hamber Korrosol 1Ltr, Iron And Fallout Remover

Korrosol is a controlled pH non-alkaline fallout remover for safe and effective removal of embedded metallic particles that contaminate the vast majority of road going vehicles. You may not have noticed by looking at your paintwork, but next time it’s washed and clean lightly feel the paintwork, especially the horizontal panels (hood, trunk lid, roof etc.). You’ll be able to feel a rough grittiness as you gently slide your finger tip across the paint. Airborne metallic particles liberated by braking surfaces, such as pads and discs fill the air along our roads. When the car in front of you brakes, your car travels through these hot metallic particles and they are left embedded in your paintwork. Also, fallout from airplanes and trains as well as grinding and cutting of metal from commercial and industrial shops can contaminate your paintwork with tiny particulates of metal. How these particles destroy paint films: They react with rainwater or air moisture and begin to corrode. The corrosion produces rust which will expand the metal particle. When iron turns to rust it will expand four times its original size. This expansion will cause the paint to slowly rupture around the embedded particle. This action destroys both the aesthetic and protective qualities of the vehicle finish. Fast and effective... simply wash away: While harsh acids such as phosphoric and oxalic acid may be used with good effect to remove the contamination, these acids do not discriminate between corrosion and non-corroded steel or vehicle paint. So, while the corroded particle is removed, unfortunately, other metals on your vehicle and also your paintwork will be attacked. Korrosol is simply sprayed onto the contaminated panel which causes a rapid and dramatic color change. The color indicates that the corroded part is water soluble after which a rinse with water leaves the panel free of the metallic particulate. Korrosol is safe to use on all automotive paint finishes including lacquers.
