Has anyone tried their new product "TRIX"? Supposed to be a combination of Iron X and their tar remover(TAR X) that works the same way. I wanted to know if anyone has tried it and if it takes away from Iron X or from Tar X. Thanks in advance.

From what I've read, Trix doesn't work as well as just using Iron X. Most who have used it didn't care for it.





That is the general consensus (like most AIO products, it does some things very well and others ...)
 
Plus you have to shake it between every trigger pull to keep the iron and tar removers mixed evenly. Overall, it sounds like I'd rather just use Tarminator or Tar X and Iron X individually.
 
Yeah I'll probably just stick to using them separately. I saw the price was cheaper with Trix but what I have no works just fine. Plus I don't use Tar X as much as Iron X.
 
I have been using TarX and a deironizer separately with no issues, just working around the vehicle following up one with the other.



In theory it's good, and tries to be a decon-system in itself, but for users like me if I am removing bugs from the front, I don't want a deironizer, and likewise if I am removing Iron from the hatch, there aren't bugs or tar that hit the rear of my vehicle.
 
I'm late to the game here but a couple answers. TRIX is actually a very powerful cleaner! There are plenty of times you will prefer to use Iron X instead of Trix such as if you have a clear bra. Trix you dont want dripping down that sensitive plastic. However as wheel cleaners go it has some loyal users. Because Iron X has been so successful not many think about Trix as much.



It does not have to be shaken after every pull of the trigger but it should be shaken at the beginning (as should any chemical) generally speaking; and it should be shaken once or twice every minute for best results to keep it mixed. Its not like you have to stop and shake it hard in the process. Just give it a shake in motion across the area.



The degreaser and Tar remover component is actually quite different than Tar-X but very effective. At the time it came out I too was confused but after using all three over the past year I definitely see purpose in all 3. Trix is the most powerful knock everything off your paint but use with caution on sensitive plastics type product. Iron X will receive more use while Trix and Tar X both find a place to be used quite often but in smaller qty usually than Iron X.



Tar X comes in soooo handy sometimes. For me it was one of those items I didn't utilize for awhile and then one detail I had it handy and it was that "Why haven't I been using this more!" moment.. Love this stuff
