This is a professional grade panel wipe

Generically these types of products are called panel wipes. As the name implies, you use these types of product to wipe down a panel. The idea being to chemically dissolve and remove any polishing oils or other substances left on the surface of car paint typically after any paint correction steps that have been performed.

Normal steps for a full exterior detail

When it comes to applying a conventional car wax or synthetic sealant, the normal steps include,

1. Wash and dry the car.
2. Clay the paint if there are any above surface bonded contamination detected via the Baggie Test.
3. Compound and polish the paint to remove any below surface defects like swirls and scratches.
4. Apply a car wax or synthetic paint coating.

After step 3, you can simply move onto the final step, which is applying a car wax or synthetic paint sealant without doing anything else to the paint. Just apply the wax or sealant, wait for it to dry to a haze, wipe off the dried product and you’re done.

With ceramic paint coatings – there’s an extra step

With a ceramic paint coating there is an EXTRA STEP required before installing the coating and this is the most important step because the product you use must be strong enough to remove any residual polishing oils or other substances but safe enough to prevent dulling or marring the paint.

The normal steps to install a ceramic coating include,

1. Wash and dry the car.
2. Clay the paint if there are any above surface bonded contamination detected via the Baggie Test.
3. Compound and polish the paint to remove any below surface defects like swirls and scratches.
4. Use a panel wipe to chemically strip each body panel to prep it for the coating.
5. Install the ceramic coating section by section, panel by panel.

* Step 4 is the extra step. Herein lies the problem.

Clearcoat paints are scratch-sensitive - Generally speaking, modern clearcoat paints tend to be harder than traditional single stage paints like lacquers and enamels used before 1980. While most clearcoat paints are harder than old school paints, they still scratch very easy. And because the clearcoat is like a WINDOW to the color coat, (called the basecoat), any swirls, scratches, scuffs, or towel marring – shows up like a sore thumb. This is because when you scratch something clear, the scratch is opaque or whitish in color and any medium to dark colored basecoats will reflect these whitish scratches back to our eyes making them very easy to see.

Most solvents are not good lubricants - The historic problem with most panel wipe or paint surface prep sprays, are the solvents used to do the actual work of dissolving polishing oils and other foreign substances are NOT good lubricants.

Now let me tie this together - If you take a conventional panel wipe, (a product that’s not a good lubricant), and wipe down a scratch-sensitive clearcoat, it’s really easy and also very common for this process to put towel marring back into the paint you just invested hours into buffing to perfect. In case you don’t know, towel marring is the fluffy way to describe light towel scratches.

See the problem? You need to use a panel wipe to prep the paint for the coating but using the panel wipe risks putting scratches back into the paint.

So, after you've invested hours into doing all the prep work, this includes washing, drying, claying, compounding, and polishing, the paint is now PERFECT – and the next step is to take a panel wipe and scratch the paint. Not good.

Here’s the good news… 3D isn’t no conventional car wax company and 3D WIPE isn’t any old conventional panel wipe. It’s better because 3D’s chemists are the best in the industry.

3D WIPE is a pro-grade product that is formulated to strip the paint without marring the paint at the same time. 3D Wipe is a water-based panel wipe that uses highly refined and filtered water as a base. We use a reverse osmosis process to remove all the total dissolved solids out of the water. Why? Because the water is the foundation for the formula. For cleaning ability, 3D WIPE uses a proprietary blend of surfactants.

3D WIPE is both safe and effective. It’s strong enough to remove any oils or other substances that would interfere with the proper bonding of the 3D Ceramic Coatingto the paint but offers more than enough lubrication to prevent accidental towel marring. Plus – unlike most panel wipes, it’s safe for you, your skin and it smells great too.

3D on the outside of the bottle means you can trust the product on the inside of the bottle.

What is it? - This is a panel wipe, which is a product used to chemically strip a paint surface before installing a ceramic paint coating.

What does it do? - After compounding and polishing paint, or any other surface prep process but before installing the coating.

When do you use it? - After compounding and polishing paint, or any other surface prep process but before installing the coating.

When it comes to detailing cars, most people want the same 4 basic things:

1. Shiny paint.
2. Clear glass.
3. Clean and fresh smelling interior.
4. Black, shiny tires.

It’s really that simple. But when it comes to tires, there are so many tire dressings on the market, and most are incredibly messy, gooey, greasy, and slimy. Plus, they sling onto your lower body panel, don’t last very long and turn your tires into dirt magnet.

When creating a tire dressing, the chemists at 3D don’t start with the dressing, they start with the tire. More specifically, how the rubber is made or formulated to create a tire. Tire rubber formulations are very complex. Think about it, they must endure a LOT of torsional flex, high rpms for hours and thousands and thousands of hard miles. It’s a miracle we get as many miles out of our tires like we do.

Besides tire rubber being complex in its own right, there are multiple tire manufacturers around the world and each company has their own unique tire products, often times very different from their competitors.

The formula for 3D SPEED Dressing was formulated starting with the chemical composition and structural formation for the end results of the tire manufacturing process. The results are a super high gloss, high shine formula that is water-based, while offering the long-lasting features of most solvent and oil-based dressings – but without the mess. Here at 3D, we understand some people like a non-glossy, dark black matte sheen for their tires, but even more people love it when their tires look as though they’re liquid wet with shine. If this describes you, you’re going to love 3D SPEED Dressing.

Think about it – if you are going to BREATHE in an air freshener – don’t you want it to be SAFE for your lungs and your entire being? Of course you do.

Many air freshener products use artificial sources, including artificial chemicals to provide the scent or smell for their air freshener.

Removing orange peel has never been so fast and easy!

Save hours of sanding time and labor by machine sanding while leaving behind a shallow, uniform sanding mark pattern.  Removing orange peel over a single body panel or an entire vehicle is fast with the 3D Flex Sanding Discs. 

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.

When machine sanding to remove orange peel, surface texture and other paint defects machine sanding with the 3D ACA – Alpha Ceramic Alumina Flex Sanding Discs are safe, fast, and highly efficient.

What is it?

Thin 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?

On fresh custom paint work to create a show car finish or match factory orange peel.

Why use 3D 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.

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.

Unlike most tire dressings, also called tire shines on the market, this tire shine was formulated to be fun and easy to use, not greasy and messy to use. The chemists at 3D are like you, that is, they don’t want a greasy, sticky mess on the sides of their tires, they simply want them to look fantastic with a deep, dark black shine. 

3D Tire Shine is a thick, rich water-based gel, it offers a very clean application without any sloppy drips or smears to deal with after the fact. Simply wipe on and massage into the tire sidewall and then allow to dry. For even more shine, wait a few minutes and apply a second, thin light application and allow this second application to dry before driving. Your tires will look amazing without becoming an oily, greasy dust-magnet that will be a pain to clean the next time you wash your car.

What is it? - Water-based tire and trim dressing.

What does it do? - Restores a high gloss shine to rubber and vinyl surfaces.

When do you use it? - After first cleaning the surface to be treated.

Why use 3D Tire Shine over other options? - This multi-purpose tire shine is water-based and non-greasy, and this makes it a pleasure to use. It works like any silicone, solvent or oil-based dressing without the greasy, oily mess. You can control the gloss and shine level by the amount of product you apply. For a super high gloss, high shine finish, apply a second coat. For a low gloss matte finish, apply only one application and then wipe the tire sidewall to remove any excess and dampen down the shine.

Directions

IMPORTANT: Always work on a cool clean surface in the shade. Thoroughly clean tires first. The key to great results for any tire dressing or tire shine starts with clean tire sidewalls.

Step 1: Apply an ample amount of 3D Tire Shine directly onto the tire sidewall and then using a tire brush, (quality paint brush), spread the product evenly over the sidewall. You can also use a foam tire swipe or foam or microfiber applicator pad.

Step 2: Lightly wipe tire sidewall to remove any excess 3D Tire Shine if needed. Allow 3D Tire Shine to fully dry before driving.

Repeat this process to the of the tire sidewalls.
