    You can see the 3in1 covers the entire medium, finish and protection section while the sf4000 covers a little space in the finish section.
    You can understand that basically if you use fg400+3in1 you're working twice to remove medium scratches (IMHO really more important than very light scratches to reach 10/10 gloss) and you are really sure you removed them
    SF4000 has the ability to finish out whatever is left behind from FG400. SF4000 even has the ability to finish out holograms left behind from a rotary combined with a wool pad and SC300.

    However on some paints , (especially hard clears) 3in1 can look better then sf4000.

    But 9 times out of 10 I'm going sf4000
    You are the only one who said it isn't actually a stupid idea. I'd like you to explain which are the cases where you can see better results

    PS. Pictures would be great if you can

    Menzerna states 3in1 too has the power of removing holograms...
    So talking about shc300 I'd use the 3in1 after that... Because from what I can see in the scheme even these two overlap each other...
    Wouldn't it be a good combo? Shc300+3in1

    Seems really few detailers here have tried the 3in1... Ok it's a relatively new product but we can't say fg400+sf4000 is the best without comparing it!
    I haven't tried it too but and that's why I'm asking...
    So examples and photos would be appreciated

    Sorry that message was wrong
    Read it above

    Anyway like you all I have the fg400 and the sf4000 plus I have the pf2500
    I'm considering to buy the 3in1. It depends on what you will suggest me :-)

    PS. I could try the pf2500 with the fg400 to try to notice how many medium scratches it removes but I think it would be a difficult test if I compare it with sf4000

    I never tested the durability in this application. It was a performance based test in what its capabilities are.
