AAT 505 Correction Glaze is a body shop safe, fresh paint safe AIO. AIO stands for All-in-One. An all-in-one product is a product the compounds, polishes and protects in one step. In the hold days we called these a cleaner/wax. This is simply the next evolution in cleaner/waxes as it’s a hybrid product that’s safe for fresh paint.
Directions:
IMPORTANT: Always work on a cool clean surface in the shade.
Orbital polishers and rotary polishers
Step 1: Prepare the surface by first washing, drying the vehicle or the panels that still have factory paint. Point being is any panel you’re going to buff needs to be clean. It’s a given the panels with fresh paint are clean – or should be clean.
Step 2: Attach a foam polishing pad to the backing plate on orbital or rotary polisher and set the speed setting to low or medium.
Step 3: Apply 4-5 nickel sized drops of product onto the center of the face of buffing pad. Press the face of the pad against a body panel, turn the polisher on and spread the product over the area to be worked, about 2’ by 2’.
Step 4: After spreading polish over area to be worked - turn polisher to a medium to high speed and begin making overlapping passes. Move polisher over paint using a slow to medium arm speed. Monitor defect removal as you buff. Once paint defects are removed to your satisfaction, stop buffing and move onto a new panel or section of a panel. Do not wipe off product yet.
Step 5: After you have finished buffing/blending any factory paint surrounding the new paint – now wipe-off any excess product using a clean, soft microfiber towel. 3D 505 Correction Glaze wipes off easiest when you allow it to fully dry.
NOTE: 3D 505 Correction Glaze can be used as a stand-alone product or after any 3D compounds or after any 3D polishes.
Professional Recommendation: Best finish results with this type of product are achieved using an orbital polisher but you can apply using a rotary polisher.
Pad recommendations: You have a lot of control over the cut with this product depending upon the pad you use. For more correction, like cleaning up severely neglected body panels use a foam cutting pad. If adjacent body panels are not too bad, then use a foam polishing pad. If you use a foam cutting pad, be sure to do a Test Spot first and make sure the aggressiveness of the foam is not leaving micro-marring.
Optional – Claying the paint - In most cases, any car that has neglected paint also has contamination on the paint, this can include overspray from when the car was repaired and repainted or from general overspray in the air in a body shop environment. Buffing with foam usually will not remove overspray or other bonded contaminants. A body shop is not a detail shop and the insurance, nor the customer is paying for the extra step of claying the paint. This is a decision the shop owner needs to make. 3D 505 Correction Glaze will shine-up paint whether it’s contaminated or not.
