FAQs

Can this be used by hand?

While it is designed for machine use, it can be used by hand for very small touch-ups, though the results will be less uniform.

Is this product safe for clear coats?

Yes, G3 Extra Plus is safe for modern automotive clear coats when used with correct technique and appropriate pads.

Do I need to wash the car after using this?

Yes, a final wash or an isopropyl alcohol wipe is recommended to remove remaining residues before applying wax or sealant.

What is the best pad type to use?

A wool buffing pad is generally recommended for the initial cutting stage to achieve maximum abrasive efficiency.

Does it contain silicone?

Farecla formulas are generally designed to be body-shop safe, but always verify the specific technical data sheet if working in a specialized paint environment.

Can I use it on plastic bumpers?

Use caution on plastic parts as they heat up much faster than metal; keep the polisher moving and use lower speeds.

Troubleshooting

Compound is dusting heavily

Reduce the amount of product used or add a small mist of water to the pad to reactivate the lubrication.

Sanding marks remain after buffing

Apply more pressure or switch to a more aggressive wool cutting pad, ensuring the pad is not saturated with old residue.

Surface appears cloudy

This is likely 'micro-marring'. Follow up with a finer finishing compound and a soft foam pad to refine the surface clarity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-efficiency removal of P1500 sanding marks
  • Reduces the number of polishing steps required
  • Provides a high-gloss finish early in the process
  • Compatible with a wide range of paint systems

Cons

  • Requires careful technique to avoid burning paint
  • May require a follow-up fine polish for perfect results on dark colors
  • Not intended for light swirl removal without aggressive equipment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use G3 Extra Plus effectively, ensure the vehicle surface is thoroughly cleaned and decontaminated using a clay bar. The compound is compatible with most standard rotary polishing machines and wool or firm foam buffing pads.

Care instructions include:

  1. Keep the product container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent drying.
  2. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  3. Regularly clean your buffing pads during use; clogged pads will prevent the abrasives from cutting correctly and may cause surface marring.
  4. Do not allow the compound to dry fully on the paint surface; wipe off while still slightly wet to avoid difficult residue removal.
