    this is a perfect example of not fixing something if it ain't broke, hopefully 3D leaves Speed alone. nice job Eric!

    Incredible transformation! 3D Speed has fillers so it would be great to see how a section looks after a panel wipe. If it still looks great than that's a miracle paint correction.

    Re: Hammered ‘15 Silverado

    Thanks guys for the compliments. I wish the customer reacted the way you all do, but he was not an expressive guy. I take the pictures for my social media page, which helps net me more work.

    I’ve been using 3D Speed for 7 years and never has it seemed like applying filler ‘makeup’. It’s corrective ability is insane and it’s ease of removal is the best part. It’s a cheat code in this industry.

    People talk about it as though it has the lifespan of tire shine. I wonder if they’ve ever used it themselves. I do ‘speed polishes’ annually for many trucks that I see every week and have never seen it ‘wear off’. I have too much riding on my local reputation to be delivering short lived results.

    I worked it on this red truck using four slow section passes with firm down pressure, making sure that pad stayed flat. The Force Orange pad on a 3401 will leave a pattern if you don’t maintain the correct contact.

    Tip: LC Force Orange with Speed will not work on black paint. Gotta go with the White pad. The white pads get stained by speed and are a pain to clean out, but they give amazing results with a 3401 using light down pressure.

    I'm more a fan of 3D One as it doesn't have Poxy filling anything.

    I've found One to cut nicely as a medium cut when needed but finish nicely too. For those customer's who don't see those nuances of finish it's perfect.

    Then, it's their LSP of choice and budget.
