Default Cheap Iron X

Was in Tesco the other night, and saw Wonder Wheels have a new product out called "Hot Wheels". Looked at the bottle, and it read like Iron X, complete with alloy wheel turning purply red on the front of the bottle. Unscrewed the cap, and it has the same... "distinctive" smell as Iron X. Got some, and it seems to work the same.

Its £6.90 per 500ml bottle, which is cheaper than Ive seen Iron X on sale

completely different product. - Iron x removes iron particles where as hot wheels cleans dirt from wheels. The only similarity is the reaction.

ah well, thought it would help.

For the record, it removed fuckloads of brake disc particles from my wheel which were caused by a sticky caliper.
