I am posting here to say hello so hello;) I am also an avid auto detailer and love the hobby.

A good friend of mine, "Sawacs", also wanted me to post on his behalf since he was labeled as "Self Banned" and does not know exactly why. He has sent messages to moderators and has yet to hear anything.

The last post he was able to make was in this thread: https://www.autogeekonline.net/foru...-restoring-show-car-finish-mike-phillips.html

The question he asked was this: "Mike, I noticed the Sonax Fallout Remover looks just like the IronX stuff in that it turns a purple color when sprayed on. What is the difference between the Sonax product and the IronX product?

Thanks,

Shawn"

After the question above was asked and with no warning from a moderator, he was labeled "Self Banned" and can no longer post on the forums.

Moderators, is there anything you can do to help him out?

Thanks and glad to be here!

Everything is worked out with Sawacs and I thank you.

Now, on to detailing!

Thanks!
 
***Update***


The issue brought up by Majekillusion was investigated and resolved.

No one here at Autogeek ever banned


And in FACT I professionally and politely answered his question.

Hi Shawn,

Good questions as most iron removers are pretty much the same in what they remove.

SONAX named this

Fallout Remover

Which is a little different than iron remover. From the store page for the product, (link is included in my write-up), the copy states,


SONAX Fallout Cleaner is a concentrated paint decontamination spray that removes stubborn iron deposits, industrial fallout and lime deposits, leaving your paint smooth and glossy.

So besides iron contamination this formula reads to be a little more wide spectrum as it also removes industrial fallout, (usually we use clay for this), and lime deposits (from water both city and well water).


After washing and chemically decontaminating the paint I then clayed it and took pictures of the clay to show what was coming off the paint. The pictures show you can't just rely on one forum of decontamination. If a car's paint is neglected enough to have one type of contamination chances are incredibly good that it's going to have both and even ALL types of contamination.

Wait till you see the results of a 2-step compounding and polishing process to this 60 year old paint. The owner picks it up today and he's going to be blown away!

I think the word used for what happened is

Fluke

The good news is Shawn aka sawacs was NEVER banned and his account is in good standing.


Now that I've answered 1 PM and sent 4 e-mails and made this post I hope everyone is assured everything is good to go.
