Thanks for this demo. I have purchased a G3 Pro Scratch Remover tube on your recommendation in another comparison video that I had viewed yesterday and am waiting delivery.

Bought some of this to tackle the marked up tank and fairing of a motorbike I just got, works absolutely brilliantly.

Nice start Dave, looking forward to see how the rest perform.

Great start to the week dave 👍👍👍

Good vid! Might be picking this one up

great result to start off the testing

Great start Dave🤘

That's a really good result for any hand applied cutting compound. I've used their clay mitt and clay lube/detailing spray, both did a great job 👍

100%, a quality result! I'm the same only ever used their clay mitt. After this I'm going to get a few more products to try.

I noticed what looked like somebody had 'keyed' the driver's and passenger's door! Panic panic set in! However being familiar with G3 products I used this G3 Scratch Removal. I was astonished at the result. I did do the scratch removal more than once then left it overnight, as said the result was quite astonishing. It is important not just to read the instructions on the tube but to also watch this KZread video which in my case gave me confidence to start the application. An excellent product! This morning I have looked at the scratch and did a final lambswool buff over the surrounding area to removal a few smears from my work. If I stand and really look closely, yes I can see the area treated but only very slightly. My neighbour couldn’t find it until looking sideways and tilting his head to different angles to catch different light on the doors. He now intends to use this product on his motor cycle so he must have been impressed at my work!

Great start Dave. I've always had a bit of a 'soft spot' for Farecla as theirs was the first proper compound I used over 20 years ago as an apprentice mechanic! Pretty sure from memory that it was still Farecla G3 Rubbing Compound but it came in a big yellow tin - I'd only ever used Auto Glym SRP before this so was my first experience of what a proper compound can do and it blew my mind! Good to see they're still relevant, very professional brand 👍🏼

They updated some of their products a recently, compounds and polishes are really good from my experience with them anyway

Product I have and use and really rate . Ive tackled FAR worse scratches with this and removed 95% of them . Had a trailer come around and catch my bumper and yes it made a real mess but 30 mins of working with this and its removed the marks . I would recommend but look forward to seeing how it matches up against others

Farecla of course Dave, been around for donkey years...their roots firmly in the Body repair world and have had some difficulty in creating a detailing specific product range (G3 Pro) and of course Farecla G3 was/still is their mainstay compound (use to smell of ammonia & came in a dulux style paint tin😂)...nonetheless their products do a good job...and I've trialled their latest DA compound & polish which work very well. Anyhoo enough waffling from me!...this product did a good job right...but needs to come with the applicator, if it specifies it. Looking forward to the next product...Great vid👌

I bought the tube before I realised it needed a special applicator. Being of the 'fairer sex' I did not want to stand reading in the middle of a male dominated area. I just chose G3 because I use G3 Pro products on my car (I love the dry wash). When I read the instructions in detail also watched the video I realised my mistake! However I used a foam washing up pad lightly dampened and that worked very well indeed. ‘Don’t Panic' is an excellent saying!

Would this work on scratched aluminium interior trim?

Can it be used to remove the scratch in my electric scooter which is made in aluminum alloy ?

Great Video. Could I use this on hedlights or there is different preduct for such.? I have 1 car with new headlights but some small stone chips all over it and another older car where I wetsanded and used polish compound but they still doesnt look great. Wondering if 3G would help both?

A very very light polish. The problem with those is that most polishes are too harsh and induce marks of their own making (hazing and holograms). I've personally had success with the AD final finish polish, and the meguiars microfibre finishing polish. I guess most finishing polishes would be ok. Koch M3.02 is another I like for that final gloss up. You can use all these above by hand. 👍

@Grey If the scratch is to deep and you take it out with a buffer your only removing your clear coat and thats not a good thing, better off getting them repaired,

Hi my car got badly two big scratches when I was parking near a pillar. So should I use G-3 or do you recommend some other product. Also is this G-3 worthy like will the scratch return in some weeks or days after car wash etc. Like I am really sad and this auto shops are mad expensive 😭

Two parts to this, any repair will not come back, that indicates fillers, this is a compound that removes a scratch, not fills it. 2nd part is it will work depending on the scratch, if it's broken through the clear and into the colour or worse, the base coat, this (or any other product) will NOT work. That would require a respray or smart repair.

@@DetailingandtheBeast now they are like 2 white scratches on the car. I bought this product knew it wouldn’t completely remove but it did nothing even after applying it still looks the same. Now should I take it to auto shop and ask them to what ? Like what is the cheapest option. Also do they respray a certain area. I don’t think so .

@DetailingandtheBeast

That's exactly what a "Smart" repair is. Cheap and small. Yes it can be spotted if you look hard enough, and some repairers are better than others, but yes, basically they spray part of the panel and try to blend it in.

this may be a dumb question, but would this product work on a flatscreen tv with lots of light scratches?

yeah but we don't have the G3 one here in Australia, it has to be imported from the UK and pay a fair amount for postage, we do have scratch x 2.0 though

Does it work on powder coat?

I know first hand that powder coat is ridiculously hard to cut with anything like this. It's designed for lacquer primarily. I'd say any sort of powder coat correction is to be done by machine and heavier compounds.

I used this and I was really disappointed with it. It doesn't last long before you need to re do it.

This isn't a "filling" polish, it's an abrasive, so it's smoothing out the scratch by removing surrounding clearcoat. So in answer to the question, it's permanent.

So its rubbing compound with a fancy name? Haha
