For light orange peel removal or for refining P1500 sanding marks
3D P2500 Flex Sanding Discs are super high quality, fine cut sanding discs for use after an aggressive sanding step like our 3D P1500. The P2500 discs quickly refine the P1500 sanding marks to P2500, which then are incredibly fast and easy to remove via compounding.
3D P2500 discs can also be used by themselves to level minor orange peel, match factory orange peel or level minor surface texture.
The secret is in the Alpha Ceramic Alumina abrasive technology created by 3DProducts.com. The particle size, shape, hardness, and cut are all engineered and controlled to create a long-lasting sanding disc that cuts fast while leaving a shallow, uniform sanding mark that buffs out fast and easy.
3D P2500 Flex Sanding Discs leave such a uniform, shallow sanding mark pattern it makes the arduous task of sanding faster and easier as well as makes the compounding step faster and easier.
What is it?
A fine grit sanding discs for use on an orbital sander.
What does it do?
Quickly and efficiently levels orange peel and other surface texture to create a flatter, more uniform surface ready for compounding.
When do you use it?
After first sanding with the 3D P1500 sanding discs to refine the P1500 sanding mark pattern to an even more shallow depth or as a stand-alone sanding process when there’s only minor orange peel to remove. P2500 is also excellent for light sanding on fresh paint to match factory orange peel o adjacent panels or for leveling minor surface texture or minor paint imperfections when P2500 is more aggressive than what’s needed.
Why use 3D P2500 Flex Sanding Discs over other options?
Great question as there are other options on the market. There are a number of key features and benefits that make our sanding discs a better choice and a better value. First the abrasive technology is our own, we made or invented it from scratch including converting the original raw materials into modified raw materials. So no one else has access to the same abrasive grain technology. The abrasives are engineered from raw materials to finished product. The key aspect of having this much control is our ability to determine the size, shape, hardness, cut ability and breakdown time.
The abrasives are then attached to the thin film using a process that ensure uniform placement over the entire disc. By controlling the particle size and placement we control the depth of the sanding marks and the pattern of the sanding marks. The results are a sanding mark pattern that is shallow in depth and even over the entire surface. This not only means the sanding marks buff out faster and easier it also means you leave more paint on the surface and keep buffing temperature lower.
Our proprietary anti-clogging technology prevents the “cementing” of paint particles onto the face of the sanding disc and this means more cutting with less risk of pigtails. Of course you must clean the face of the disc often, but any paint particles remove easily instead of impaction onto the disc in a way they are difficult if not impossible to remove. In real world testing on average paint hardness, you can expect to use one disc to sand one body panel. There are exceptions to both extremes, on some paint you may get less than a panel, (really hard paint with excess orange peel), or two body panels for softer paint less orange peel. Because topcoat hardness is always an unknown variable, we don’t make specific claims but let the overall performance of our products do the talking.
This is our dark purple foam cutting pad with a spider cut to help you get some surface down on your polishing. The 3.5 inch format let's you get right up next to the trim and glass. These pads are also handy for working on headlights.

3D’s wool cutting pads with rotary polishers are the fastest and most efficient pad and tool combo for removing sanding marks, deep swirls, scratches, oxidation, and water spots. The fibers of wool cutting pads are forms of abrasives. These fiber abrasives offer their own dedicated cutting ability. Together with the abrasives in your choice of 3D compound, you now have to types of abrasives cutting for you and this is powerful.
The rotary polisher, because it’s single direction, direct driver or gear-driven tool means zero pad stalling. So the fastest and most time-efficient way to remove sanding marks or other serious and deep paint defects is with a 3D wool pad, a 3D compound, and a rotary polisher.
What is it?
High performance lambswool cutting pad for use with rotary polishers.
What does it do?
When used with 3D compounds and polishes, the 3D lambswool cutting pad removes sanding marks and other deep paint defects like, swirls, scratches, water spots and oxidation.
When do you use it?
Typically lambswool cutting pads are used as the first paint correction step after sanding. They are also the first step in a multiple-step paint correction process to remove or level deep swirls, scratches, water spots and oxidation. Any wool pad step should always be followed with a foam pad step to ensure there are no holograms left behind from the fibers of the wool pad.
Why use 3D’s White Lambswool Cutting Pads over other options?
The 3D white lambswool cutting pad is a premium cutting pad. We only use the finest lambswool from sheep sheered in Australia. The sheered lambswool undergoes multiple processes step to create the perfect all-natural lambswool cutting pad.
Because of our proprietary treating process, our lambswool pad will also outlast all other wool cutting pads. And because of the uniform pile resulting from the complex treatment process, our lambswool pads will leave a more shallow hologram pattern than other wool pads.
Plus because of the proprietary treatment process, our pads are non-linting and don’t shed like conventional traditional wool pads, so they are cleaner for your shop and the process.

Maximize leveling of orange peel or surface texture!
The 3D Interface Pads are designed specifically for the 3D ACA Flex Sanding Discs. The 3D interface pad offers the perfect balance of medium density foam rubber to smooth out the oscillating action while maintaining a flat surface to efficiently sand only the high point until they are level with the low points on the surface.
The hooks used for the sanding disc side are flat-style micro-hooks. They offer excellent attachment strength while virtually eliminating any horizontal torsional movement between the sanding disc and the interface pad. The flat-style micro-hooks keeps the face of the sanding disc damn near flat against the surface. This means there's simply no "wiggle" between the interface pad and the sanding disc, which transfers the oscillating action of the sander to the surface of the paint without variation. The results are a dramatically flatter sanding action to keep the sanding where you want it – on the high points on the surface.
Non-3D interface pads will decrease sanding disc performance and increase the risk for pigtails.
Thick or soft foam interface pads or using the wrong style hook like conventional long J-hooks style, cause the sanding disc to abrade the high points and the low points at the same time so you’re never truly leveling the high points but instead sanding down or taking down the entire surface equally. This wastes perfectly good paint and also wastes time.
The 3D interface pad enables the face of the sanding disc to abrade only the highest points so you can remove only the orange peel while leaving more of the lower-level paint on the surface.
Don’t get caught in the misconception that all hook-n-loop styles are the same – they are not. The 3D Flex Sanding Discs are tuned and optimized for the 3D Interface pad. The last place you want to skimp or cut corners is when sanding the paint on your own car or a customer car.
What is it?
Semi-flexible foam interface pad with flat micro hooks on other sanding disc side for more precise cutting action. Uses Alpha Ceramic Alumina for abrasive technology, abrasive grains are uniform in size and placement over the face of the disc with a controlled cutting and breakdown rate. Anti-clogging technology helps surface to avoid cementing of the paint dust to surface of disc.
What does it do?
Maintains a flat surface between the face of the sanding disc and the paint surface when sanding flat and curved body panels. Reduces the risk for pig tails.
When do you use it?
Anytime you want to remove orange peel or other surface texture to create a more perfect finish.
Why use 3D Interface Pads over other options?
3D sanding discs are thin, so they keep the leveling focus on the high points of orange peel for maximum leveling efficiency. The Alpha Ceramic Alumina abrasive technology are engineered abrasives that are uniform in size, shape, hardness, cutting, and breakdown for smooth, long-lasting cutting on any dual action sander. The uniform size and placement mean a more uniform and shallow sanding mark pattern that buffs out fast while leaving more paint on the car.
Don’t skimp when it comes to towels
Much of the focus for any detailing project is usually placed on products and of course this is important. But the quality of your microfiber towels are just as important. And, when it comes to your car’s paint it’s actually more important. Why? Because everything that touches your car’s finish MUST be clean, soft, and uncontaminated. It takes hours to perform paint correction and only seconds to put scratches back into the paint. Avoid the risk and make sure you have plenty of clean, soft, uncontaminated microfibre towels in your detailing arsenal to keep your car’s finish swirls and scratch-free.
It's also vitally important to have clean laundry hampers or storage containers to store dirty microfibre towels until you’re ready to do your microfibre laundry as well as a clean place to store your microfibre towels after they come out of the dryer and are inspected and folded for future use.
The most common root cause for swirls and scratches in your car’s finish comes from the things that touch the paint and for must of us this means the wash mitts, microfibre towels and drying towels. If you don’t already have a process in place to take care of your microfiber tools – start today. It’s much easier and faster to avoid swirls and scratches because your microfibre towels are clean, soft, plush, and uncontaminated than it does to machine compound and polish your car.
Use 3D Towel Kleen to wash and maintain your towels to get the maximum performance and longevity out of your 3D towel collection.
What is it?
A 80/20 blend of polyester to polyamide microfibre cloth that is an exceptionally soft. These towels are laser-cut so they are edgeless in design to reduce the risk of marring paint. These 400-gram microfibre towels are purpose-designed for buffing off polishes, waxes & paint sealants as well as ceramic paint coatings.
What does it do?
3D microfibre towels safely remove waxes and sealants off car paint more effectively than conventional options like cotton terrycloth bath towels, t-shirts, diapers, and cheesecloth. The microscopic size of the individual filaments excel at both absorbing and adsorbing both liquids and dried films like compound, polish, and wax residues.
When do I use it?
After applying a coat of car wax, synthetic sealant or ceramic paint coating and then waiting for the recommended drying or flash time and then wiping any excess product off the surface. Anytime you need to remove the residues left by compounds, polishes, and all-in-ones.
Why use 3D microfibre towels over other options?
The 3D brand of microfibre towels were specifically sourced with the expectation for offering our customers a premium quality microfibre towel. There are so many cheap microfibre towels on the market and like the old saying goes,
You get what you pay for.
