3D One

[DETAILROOKIE]

I used 3D one for the first time today and it did a great job at cutting and finishing LSP ready, but it was a bit of a pain to remove. It pretty oily for me. Has any one experienced this as well? And tips on helping with the removal or did I just use too much product? It did great on the Jeep's paint.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190510/8cccb3c2214002099838a0199cbc5236.jpg

You are not alone. The more I use it the more I dislike it for the reason you described.

It’s overall performance is good but the wipe off and constant need to wipe off is a con for me. It takes multiple swipes to remove it and the wipe off towels seem to load up quickly.

Using a wetting agent or prep spray does help. But it is rather cumbersome to wipe it off cleanly otherwise compared to other polishes.

Try backing off on the amount of product.

When Don from 3D says "a little goes a long way", he isn't kidding.

I start with four, and drop to two for reload. My drops are pretty small too.

What pads are you using?

An IPA or equivalent product does help.

I’ve tried backing down on the amount of product but that didn’t help either. Tried it with Rupes yellow pad, Americana Global’s polishing pad, Rupes yellow wool and it was the same thing with all pads.

The other positive is it doesn’t dust.

Too bad it can wipe off as easily as their 3D ACA polish or even the 3D ACA compound for that matter.

Only need a little bit of product and also I found letting it set a bit while you do another section then going back to wipe off helps. Kinda like trying to wipe a paste wax to soon.

I really like this product but a small small amount is all that is needed

Kind of a bummer to read about the wipe-off issues.

I have used HD Polish and Speed, and those two are pretty much effortless to remove.

not much....didn't prime the pad.....just the usual 4 pea size drops....butter the panel and have at it....using a Griots BOSS yellow polishing pad if that helps

[BudgetPlan1]

Found it oily as well, not worth the effort for me with other options availiable but I'm kinda lazy like that.

Start with two drops and see what happens, and reload with one. Or 3 / 2.

I just tried it today on a blue Uro-Tec coarse heavy cut pad, and it was harder to spread out. With that orange pad, that smaller amount should spread out a bit nicer.

So true. It is also an age thing for me. At a younger age I wouldn’t care. But at this age I want something that is not so cumbersome to use. I don’t have time to be messing around.

Did you give your bottle away? Can’t remember.
