Post anyone ever heard of fallout remover?

I work at a Chrysler dealership cleaning cars. When new cars come in off the truck we wash them with this red liquid which you let dry, then hose off. It lifts all the rail dust, birdsh*t, dirt, etc. off of the paint without scrathing it. Has anyone else ever seen this stuff?

I was also wondering how the Black paint is on new Ford,G.M. vehicles. Even on brand new cars at work there is spiderwebbing and light swirl marks

fallout remover ? hmm, interesting name, and not what I thought this was going to be about . ..

seeing as i live and work within 5 K of 8 nuclear reactors, i was a little nervous . ..

a liquid that removes embedded particles . . . ? ? ? I want some . ..

but then again, cant see how it does it effectively . . without causing some sort of clearcoat damage . .

as for new paint - my 2000 SSEi has a lovely orange peel effect, as well as factory (Im sure they are under the paint) swirlings

The red stuff you describe is an acid wash, will almost the same thing as a clay bar, but a clay bar will leave the surface much smoother.

The clay bar has definitely made a big difference on my cars and on the ones I demo on. The difference really amazes some people.
