I noticed several YT influencers were making the rounds at the show: Will, Keev, and Out of Spec detailing.

Ummm, Autogeek, I don't think "Limescale" is in reference to scent of this product...................................



Not a good sign really.

Is it possible it IS lime-scented? I know Corey said it smelled much better than regular IronX, but I'm not sure he said what the scent was, if any.

These scents never work out on the iron-eaters, anyway...my bottle of Griot's wheel cleaner smells like cherry urinal cakes--except worse. As I recall no one was impressed with the lemon-scent they used in one of the IronX's, either.

This is what happens when you turn over your marketing department to an AI agent.

They already have lemon scented. Lemon scented rotten egg farts or lime scented rotten egg farts... does it really matter?

That could very easily be the explanation....we're doomed.

Reading between the lines of Corey's video, I got the impression that since you generally remove limescale with an acid, and acid also works on metal/brake dust, that it may be they reduced the thioglycolate content, which is why it doesn't smell as bad. As usual, I will now plug the Stoner's Odorless Iron Remover. It doesn't work as well (or at least it doesn't seem to), but it's so much nicer to work with.

That is the first thing I went looking for when I spotted that Instagram post. However, I couldn't find a reference to lime being the chosen scent, hence this post.

And you are correct, the scents never work, and in some cases they make it worse. The only iron removers I can stand are the cherry scented NV Purify and Purge duo.

This is exactly what I was alluding to, be that AI or someone who is in charge of social media marketing that has no idea about detailing.
