    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.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

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

    Thank you for the advice!

    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.

    Still have it (I think)...was nice to work with right up until wipe off time...same reason I quit Menzerna in favor of Jescar.

    Everybody's different though, many like it, no harm, no foul...but not for me.

    Do a panel or two then wipe it off!

    Re: 3D One

    Like others said, using less product is helpful. I was working with it last night on some PPF and it did a good job. Four drops to start and then two or three small drops after that.

    I was using orange Hybrid Force pads on a Flex 3401. I also worked larger than normal sections and faster than normal arm speed. The wipe-off wasn't the best experience (it's definitely more time consuming to remove than CutMax or Griot's FFC), but it wasn't bad at all. After the majority was removed then a small spritz of Gtechniq Panel Wipe helped to take off the light layer that remained.

    Re: 3D One

    Came back to post an update to this thread. I had been playing around with 3D one as I mentioned at the beginning of this thread and the biggest thing for me was the wipe off.

    Maybe it was the weather or perhaps this particular paint but the wipe off was not bad at all. The overall results were very good for a one step in terms of cut and finish.

    Very cool follow-up Mike.

    It's frustrating to use different products in different weather/temperatures for sure.

    Add what the pro's do, and have to decipher this puzzle on all kinds of paints, and well....... Kudos to all the true pros on here.
