When 2-Step
Isn't Enough
Two-step is the right choice for most vehicles. But some paint needs a third pass to get where it needs to be. Heavily oxidized paint. Deep scratches that two stages of compound haven't fully resolved. Paint with years of automated car wash damage. Black paint on a show vehicle where every remaining defect under harsh light is unacceptable.
The difference between 75-85% and 90-95% defect removal sounds modest. On dark paint under a shop light, it's clearly visible. Three-step eliminates what's left after two-step finishes.
It's also required before our Elite 10-Year ceramic coating. If you're going to protect your paint for a decade, it's worth spending the time to make the surface as perfect as possible before sealing it.
