FEATURES
Two Contaminants. One Powerful Solution.
TACSYSTEM TR.ZR is an advanced 2-in-1 tar and iron remover designed to simplify automotive exterior decontamination.
Combining the contamination-removing capabilities associated with TAR ZERO and IRON ZERO, TR.ZR targets both stubborn tar deposits and embedded iron contamination in a single treatment.
Its powerful pH-neutral formula helps dissolve and loosen tar, iron particles, road grime, and stubborn exterior contamination, reducing the need to perform separate tar-removal and iron-removal processes.
By combining two essential chemical decontamination steps into one product, TR.ZR helps professional detailers and vehicle owners save time, reduce product usage, and simplify the preparation process before claying, polishing, waxing, sealing, or ceramic coating.
- 2-in-1 Decontamination – Combines tar and iron removal in a single product.
- Powerful Tar Removal – Helps dissolve and loosen stubborn road tar and oily road contamination.
- Iron Particle Removal – Chemically reacts with and helps dissolve embedded ferrous contamination.
- pH-Neutral Formula – Designed for effective exterior decontamination while maintaining a pH-neutral base.
- Heavy-Duty Cleaning – Removes stubborn road grime, dirt, tar, and iron contamination.
- Time-Saving Formula – Reduces the need for separate tar-removal and iron-removal steps.
- Cost-Efficient Decontamination – One product performs two major exterior decontamination functions.
- Paint Preparation – Ideal before clay treatment, polishing, waxing, sealing, or ceramic coating.
- Reduced Mechanical Decontamination – Chemical removal of bonded contaminants can help reduce the amount of claying required.
- Easy Spray-On Application – Spray, allow the formula to react, and rinse thoroughly.
- Repeatable Treatment – Heavily contaminated areas can be treated again where necessary.
TAR ZERO + IRON ZERO IN ONE
Two Essential Decontamination Steps. One Bottle.
Automotive exterior surfaces are continuously exposed to multiple types of contamination.
Two of the most difficult to remove are road tar and iron particles.
These contaminants behave differently and traditionally require separate chemical treatments.
TAR CONTAMINATION
Road tar, asphalt residue, and oily road deposits can become strongly bonded to lower body panels, rocker panels, bumpers, wheel areas, and other exterior surfaces.
IRON CONTAMINATION
Brake dust, rail dust, industrial fallout, and other ferrous particles can become embedded in automotive exterior surfaces.
TR.ZR is designed to address both types of contamination in a single treatment.
Instead of performing one complete tar-removal process followed by a separate iron-removal process, TR.ZR simplifies the workflow by combining both functions into one powerful decontamination product.
POWERFUL TAR REMOVAL
Dissolve Stubborn Road Contamination
Normal car shampoo is excellent for removing loose dirt but may not fully remove stubborn road tar and oily contamination bonded to the vehicle.
TR.ZR helps soften, dissolve, and loosen these deposits so they can be removed more efficiently during the decontamination process.
Typical tar-contaminated areas include:
- Lower doors
- Rocker panels
- Wheel arches
- Front and rear bumpers
- Areas behind the wheels
- Lower quarter panels
- Other surfaces exposed to road tar and asphalt residue
Removing this contamination chemically can reduce the need for aggressive mechanical rubbing.
IRON CONTAMINATION REMOVAL
Remove Embedded Ferrous Particles
Iron contamination is commonly produced by:
- Brake dust
- Rail dust
- Industrial fallout
- Metallic road contamination
- Other ferrous particles
These particles can become embedded in exterior surfaces and may not be completely removed through conventional washing.
TR.ZR chemically reacts with ferrous contamination, helping dissolve and release the particles from the surface so they can be rinsed away.
Removing embedded iron contamination is an important part of maintaining a clean exterior surface and preparing paint for further detailing.
WHY REMOVE IRON CONTAMINATION?
Ferrous particles can remain embedded in automotive exterior surfaces after normal washing.
When exposed repeatedly to moisture and environmental conditions, these particles may oxidize and contribute to visible contamination and surface deterioration.
TR.ZR helps remove these particles before they remain embedded for extended periods.
This makes it particularly useful during periodic deep cleaning and before paint-correction or protection processes.
TR.ZR should be considered a decontamination cleaner, not a corrosion-prevention coating.
pH-NEUTRAL DECONTAMINATION
Powerful Cleaning with a pH-Neutral Base
TR.ZR combines strong chemical decontamination performance with a pH-neutral base formula.
This allows the product to target stubborn tar and ferrous contamination without relying on strongly acidic or alkaline chemistry.
As with any professional decontamination chemical, correct application is essential.
Always work on a cool surface, avoid direct sunlight, do not allow the product to dry, and rinse thoroughly after treatment.
SAVE TIME DURING DECONTAMINATION
One Product Instead of Two Separate Steps
Traditional chemical decontamination may involve:
Step 1 — Tar Remover
Treat tar and oily road deposits.
Step 2 — Rinse
Step 3 — Iron Remover
Treat brake dust, rail dust, and ferrous contamination.
Step 4 — Rinse Again
TR.ZR combines the two primary chemical treatments:
TR.ZR — TAR + IRON REMOVAL
This streamlined process can reduce working time and simplify professional detailing workflows, particularly when processing multiple vehicles.
REDUCE MECHANICAL CLAYING
Let Chemistry Do More of the Work
Clay bars and synthetic clay media can remove bonded contamination, but unnecessary mechanical contact can increase the possibility of light marring on sensitive paint.
TR.ZR helps chemically loosen and remove tar and iron contamination before mechanical decontamination.
By removing more contamination chemically, the amount of claying required afterward may be reduced.
This can make the overall preparation process faster and more controlled.
IDEAL BEFORE PAINT CORRECTION & COATING
TR.ZR is particularly useful as part of the preparation process before:
- Clay-bar treatment
- Machine polishing
- Paint correction
- Wax application
- Paint sealant application
- Ceramic coating application
A thoroughly decontaminated surface allows subsequent polishing and protection processes to be performed more effectively.
