Product Information
Full details
The Farécla G3 Premium Abrasive Compound is designed for professional detailers and automotive enthusiasts seeking a powerful and efficient solution for paint correction. Its key benefit is a long-lasting, permanent cut that effectively removes P1500 grit sanding marks and finer from all modern paint systems. A potential caveat is that it is optimized for fresh paints, so results on fully cured or older paint may vary.

FAQs
What grit of sandpaper can the G3 Premium Abrasive Compound remove?
It is designed to effectively remove sanding marks from P1500 grit or finer.
Can I use this compound on my car's original factory paint?
Yes, it is suitable for all modern paint systems, including original factory finishes and refinished surfaces.
Is this compound safe for fresh paint?
Yes, it is formulated to work cleanly on fresh paints without dragging, staining, or hazing.
Do I need a special machine to use this compound?
While it can be used by hand, machine application (rotary or dual-action polisher) with an appropriate pad is recommended for best and most efficient results.
How much compound should I use per section?
A few small dabs applied to the applicator pad are usually sufficient. Avoid overloading the pad, as this can lead to excessive sling and inefficient cutting.
What is the difference between G3 Premium and other G3 compounds?
G3 Premium offers a powerful, long-lasting cut optimized for removing deeper defects and fresh paint. Other G3 variants may offer different cutting/finishing characteristics.
How should I store the G3 Premium Abrasive Compound?
Store it in its original container with the lid tightly sealed, in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Compound is dragging or not cutting effectively.
Ensure you are using sufficient pressure and speed for machine application. Check that the pad is clean and not overloaded with product. The surface may require more aggressive sanding preparation if the defect is too deep.
Residue is difficult to wipe off.
Work the compound for a slightly longer period until it thins out. Ensure you are using a clean, high-quality microfiber towel for removal. Lightly misting the area with a detailer spray can sometimes help with stubborn residue, but avoid excessive liquid.
Hazing or light scratches remain after compounding.
This compound is designed for defect removal; a finishing polish and a softer finishing pad are recommended to restore maximum gloss and clarity. Ensure all previous sanding marks have been fully removed by the G3 Premium compound.
Compound dries out too quickly.
Ensure the container lid is sealed tightly when not in use. Avoid working in excessively hot or direct sunlight conditions. If the product has dried out significantly in the tub, it may be compromised.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Compatibility:
This compound is designed for use on all modern paint systems, including clear coats, single-stage paints, and refinished surfaces. It is particularly effective on fresh paints.
Setup & Use:
- Preparation: Ensure the surface to be treated is clean, dry, and free from contaminants. For machine application, use a suitable polishing machine (rotary or dual-action) with an appropriate applicator pad (e.g., foam compounding pad or wool pad).
- Application: Apply a few small dabs of compound to the applicator pad. Spread the compound evenly over a small working area (e.g., 2ft x 2ft).
- Compounding: Work the compound using moderate pressure with the polishing machine, maintaining a consistent speed. Move the machine slowly and evenly over the surface. You will notice the compound start to thin out as it breaks down.
- Wipe-Off: Once the compound has thinned and the defect has been removed, wipe away any residue immediately with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Inspect the area for complete defect removal.
- Finishing: For a superior finish, follow up with a finer finishing polish and a polishing pad to enhance gloss and remove any light hazing that may remain.
Care:
- Store the compound in its original container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Keep the lid tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the compound from drying out.
- Clean applicator pads thoroughly after each use to prevent contamination and maintain their effectiveness.
