Meet the New & Improved Chemical Guys Decon Pro

The Iron & Fallout Remover Solution Your Paint Needs

You know that feeling when you wash your car, step back, look over your work, and still feel like something's off? Sure, the paint looks clean, but it's not quite pristine. The gloss is muted, and the surface feels a little rough. Even after a thorough wash followed by a clay bar treatment, you might wonder: What's going on? What am I missing?

Spoiler: it's probably embedded iron deposits.

These tiny, invisible troublemakers burrow into your clear coat and resist removal through regular washing. They come from brake dust, rail dust, industrial fallout, and everyday driving. Once they bond to your paint, they can rust, corrode, and generally harm your finish.

That's why we've renovated, upgraded, and supercharged our Decon Pro Color Changing Iron & Fallout Remover to help you tackle this exact issue. Think of it as your paint's personal detox—less of a spa day and more like deep-tissue extraction.

The Problem: Hidden Iron Contamination

Let's talk about how this happens with your paint. Every time you drive, your car picks up microscopic bits of metal that embed into the clear coat like little splinters. Despite their small size, they have a significant impact:

- They rust, leading to stains, surface defects, and dullness.

- They disrupt your shine, creating a rough, contaminated surface that diffuses gloss.

- They block proper bonding: wax, sealants, and ceramic coatings cannot adhere properly if iron contaminants are still present.

Even the best wash or clay bar treatment can't completely remove embedded iron. So, if you've ever had issues with ceramic coating longevity, or if your wax doesn't seem to shine as it should, or if your paint feels gritty after a detail, this could be why.

The Solution: A Stronger, Smarter, Faster Chemical Guys Decon Pro

The new version of Decon has been redesigned from the sprayer up to make the iron-removal process easier and more effective for all types of vehicles. It still features the iconic color-changing reaction—those satisfying moments when the formula turns purple or red as it dissolves embedded iron—but now it works even more efficiently.

Here's what the new Decon formula delivers:

- Removes contaminants that regular washing and claying cannot touch.

- The color-changing reaction provides instant feedback, showing you that it's working.

- Safe for nearly every exterior surface: clear coat, paint, wheels, chrome, glass, and plastics.

- Preps surfaces for your next steps: whether it's wax, sealant, polish, or ceramic coating.

- An effortless process: just spray on, let it sit, and rinse off—no scrubbing required.

This iron & fallout remover acts as a reset button for your paint. With just one quick Decon session, your surface will be cleaner, smoother, and more ready than ever for any protection product you apply next.

Why Decontamination Matters Before Waxing, Sealing, or Coating

Think of detailing as a layered process. Protection products—whether traditional wax, modern sealants, or high-tech ceramic coatings—require a clean, contaminant-free surface to adhere properly. If iron particles remain stuck in your clear coat, these protective layers won't bond correctly, reducing their longevity.

Using Decon transforms your prep process from "pretty good" to professional-grade with the proper canvas for protection.

The Results?

- Better bonding

- Longer-lasting protection

- Higher gloss

- Stronger hydrophobic performance

- A finish that feels smooth to the touch
