@NickM1013 5 лет назад

@c6z061 5 лет назад

@@NickM1013 I think Daniel was being sarcastic to my comment. I'm aware a cutting compound won't finish like polish, but Brian does say most of the compounds he's tested finish down "very far". Then again, I'm not sure of ones definition of very far.

@GM-cm3qc 5 лет назад

So you just use fast correcting cream and then apply protection? Sounds like a great product.

@mf_williams 5 лет назад

I do a lot of spot panel correction on car lots, so this series has been great. Thanks for putting in the work to test them out. A question though, do you have a preferred way to quickly tell if a clear coat is hard or soft?

@apexdetail85 5 лет назад

I pretty much have each make and model memorized by now...but if you are not sure...start the correction with a foam polish pad. On soft clear...this is enough eggression to remove most love marks and swirls. It takes microfiber and wool to do the same on hard stubborn clear.

Been using sonax cut max for ages just started using Aca 500 much better product and finishes so much better

@2010stoof 5 лет назад

Really interested in these ACA products. But they are far outside the normal cost even for professional compounds. I did get 3d one that has the same abrasives. That's the only "detailing" 3d products with the alumina abrasives. The ACA ones fall under "professional" on their site. I assume meaning more for body shops while ONE, CUT, and POLISH are under "detailing" That stuff looks great!!! But man it's expensive

@apexdetail85 5 лет назад

It is pricey! Can't argue with that!

@theplatinumcaraudio 5 лет назад

15% of plus another 20% off today! I bought the gallon of compound and polish. It ended up with tax $34/qt

@danlc95 10 месяцев назад

With normal compounds I'm using anywhere from four to six ounces of product. With 3D ACA500, and ONE it's about half that.

@metalpolishshop 5 лет назад

Brian, is this compound a SMAT technology? Really liking the no dust characteristic that it was exhibiting during your testing here. That is one thing why M105 (that does really work well) is on the last choice that i grab list.

@apexdetail85 5 лет назад

It contains Alpha Ceramic Abrasives...They give a nice even consistent cut.

@thesnowmanMHH 5 лет назад

Hi Kevin it is SMAT. I do find you have to be careful priming the pads with all 3D compounds/polishes if you are doing the KBM. The lubrication in this will dumb down the cut if you prime too heavily. it spreads so well! Less is definitely more

@danlc95 2 года назад

@@thesnowmanMHH Agreed. 3D has stated for years that there is no need to prime pads with their formulations. I start with four drops on a 5.5" pad. Two for the reload. Great compound.

None of 3D's abrasives are diminishing.

Nice product 3D makes some of the best stuff out there!! Hey I have a random question and wanted to ask u for advice. I'm about to tackle paint correction on my white car, paint hardness is medium, I have meguiars ultimate compound and Meguiars burgandy foam cutting pad "dfc5" and after that I was gonna follow up with 3D AAT 502 finishing polish with a meguiars yellow polishing pad dfp5....do you think that is a good combination?

Or would meguiars 205 be better then the 3d AAT 502to use after cutting with ultimate compound
