After reading everyone’s experiences and talking with Gary @CYBERBRITE1 , I finally tackled the CyberBrite application today. I figured I’d share exactly what I did and my results.

The night before:
* Foam cannon wash
* Contact wash
* Wipe dry and let the truck air dry overnight
I also had my garden hose connected to an RV-style water filter to help reduce mineral deposits.

This morning:
I started with Adams Iron Remover. I bought two bottles, which worked out great because my son helped. He covered the passenger side and rear while I did the driver’s side and front. Having a second person definitely speeds things up. Looking back, I should have sprayed the windshield and roof glass too. Oh well… next time.

I let the Iron Remover dwell for about 90 seconds, then misted a little more on any areas that looked like they were starting to dry. After that, I rinsed the truck thoroughly, did another contact wash to remove any remaining Iron Remover residue, dried it, and finished with a 99% IPA wipe on the stainless.

Next came CyberBrite.
Again, my son and I each took a side of the truck. We saturated the microfiber towels and applied the first coat, keeping the surface wet for about 10 minutes by adding product as needed. After 10 minutes, we switched to fresh towels and applied a second coat, again keeping everything wet for another 10 minutes.

One thing I noticed was how much black residue the towels picked up during the second application. The light gray towels Gary includes definitely showed just how much contamination was still being removed. We threw those away and used fresh towels for the second half of the application. Total product used was about 1¼ bottles.

After the full 20-minute application, we rinsed the truck thoroughly, foam cannoned it again, did one final contact wash, and dried it.

One thing worth mentioning because it caught me off guard…

After using Iron Remover and washing the truck, the stainless looked terrible. It had streaks everywhere, almost like something had run down the panels and stained them. I honestly thought I had made a mistake. Don’t panic. I trusted the process, applied CyberBrite, and every bit of that disappeared.

The end result was exactly what I was hoping for. The stainless has a much more uniform appearance with a brighter, cleaner, more even sheen. It also made the factory grain and finish more apparent, which I actually like.

One mistake on my part… I didn’t use a blower around the mirrors and trim after the final wash. After taking a short drive, a little leftover Iron Remover solution seeped out from behind the mirror housing and ran down the door. My heart sank thinking it had stained the panel. I grabbed a damp microfiber, wiped it once, and it came right off.

Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the results.

A huge thank you to Gary for answering all of my questions over the past week and standing behind his product. CyberBrite absolutely lived up to its claims on my truck, and I have no problem recommending it to other Cybertruck owners. 👍

I drive my Cybertruck in all weather conditions. The past two winters in the North East left a large array of deposits and stains all over. I tried the recommended cleaning method with CitriSurf77 and it seems to slightly work, but the stains and deposits remained. Enter Cyberbrite. This stuff is amazing. SO easy to use. Wash, Dry, apply, wait 10min, apply again, wait 10min, wash, dry and... deposits/stains are all but gone (I was a bit rushed). Highly recommend Cyberbrite. My back and arms aren't sore!

Only 4 stars because I thought it was more of a 1 or 2 time application to do a deep clean. I’m on my 4th application and had to order another bottle This should get it done. It does work and might work better on newer trucks with less staining. My truck is 2 years old and gets washed very often but had a very light bronze/titanium patina so 3-4 applications will get yours back to new.

Another CYBERBRITE review reposted from the forum, this one goes in depth, huge thank you to user Dazureus for this in depth review.

Not sure if we're supposed to post our results to this thread or start a new one, but here are mine.

Background: Foundation Beast in Michigan, second winter. First year I cleaned all the post winter road contamination with a wash and synthetic clay bar. Did a good job removing nearly all the stains. Had to remove remaining stains with a scotchbrite pad, which caused some mismatched swirl marks, but not super annoying. Treated with the recommended Citrisurf and maintained clean with waterless wash and Sprayway.

This winter I might have washed the truck twice with a touchless car wash. My main concern was the front fenders and right in front of the rear wheel well fairings. I've noticed a white crust that accumulates after the winter that required mechanical removal. I suspected it was from salt accumulation, but washing alone doesn't remove it.

Process:
I washed the car with a foam canon and wash mit to remove the bulk of dirt. Left with surface staining. Sprayed with Iron-X (new to my process this year) and power washed to remove. Dried and applied Cyberbrite as suggested with two coats for 10-15 minutes dwell time each. I found that, even when applied in the garage out of the sun on a mild day (65 degrees), the application would start to dry within the 10-15 minute time, but I ran with it and still had good results.

On to the pictures.

Front fender contamination on the leading edge of the metal, pre-wash.

Front fender contamination after soap/hand wash. This would be removed by the Cyberbrite application either by chemical process, or mechanical buffing with the cloth.

A stainless steel badge pre-hand wash. Some rusting on the badge itself, and notice the dark contamination on the truck steel.

Badge during application of Iron-X

Badge and truck after application of Cyberbrite. I didn't attempt to decontaminate with the Cyberbrite alone since I was looking at so much contamination. The Cyberbrite certainly brings back the silver color or the steel, removing the general brown discoloration.

Passenger side door panel. A good look at the contamination I was dealing with.

Tailgate post wash, pre Iron-X. The little spots of contamination were all over the vehicle. Spraying the Iron-X requires less labor than applying the Cyberbrite, so I think it's a good step.

Tailgate post Cyberbrite. You can see how much more silver the stainless steel becomes. Even after the Iron-X, some of the brown patina remains. The Cyberbrite appears to remove this discoloration.

Two areas that will require more attention. The weep hole on my driver door has some rust that wasn't sprayed with Iron-X, but I did attempt to use Cyberbrite to remove. It didn't remove the rust completely, but did lessen it. Also the passenger side still has some slight discoloration near the edges of the door panels even after all cleaning and treatments. I plan to target these areas with additional applications of Cyberbrite or precleaning with with BKF, then passivating it with Cyberbrite.

Conclusion:
Cleaning this year with wash/Iron-X/Cyberbrite was much less labor intensive than previous methods of wash/claybar/BKF/acid neutrilizing/Citrisurf and will probably be my spring cleaning regime going forward. I'll probably still maintain via waterless wash and sprayway during the warmer months.

Additional information: I test applied DIY Detail Metal coating to the hood and front to see if gaining some hydrophobic properties could help keep it cleaner. While it felt a little slicker, it does not appear to prevent water staining after rain. Perhaps I didn't apply it properly, but it doesn't appear to be an effective way to keep the truck clean.

Tried it this weekend. By far the best "stainless steel" specific product I've used
