FARECLA

Farécla products here cover washing, defect removal, finishing and protection. The 13-item range includes G3 Pro Shampoo and All-in-One Polish, G3 Premium Abrasive Liquid Compound, G3 Glaze and G3 Wax, G360 Super Fast Compound and Finish in full and trial sizes, Clean and Protect, a Super High Cut pad, yellow angled compounding foams and black angled finishing foams. Compound, finish and protection are not interchangeable even when each produces gloss.

Inspect paint type, cure state and defect depth before selecting an abrasive. Dirt, bonded contamination, oxidation, sanding marks, swirl marks and deep scratches require different preparation and removal limits. The current AutoMotoPart selection contains 13 Farécla items, led by 8 maintenance entries, 5 valeting entries. These Farécla figures describe the range on this page rather than every product the brand may make elsewhere.

Match the exact Farécla liquid with its supported machine, backing plate and G Mop pad. A high-cut engineered pad changes the action of G360 Compound, while yellow compounding and black finishing foams serve different stages. Confirm pad diameter, machine type, speed and product data; do not transfer rotary instructions to a dual-action pad or infer that every 150mm foam suits every backing plate. Test discreetly and measure paint where removal risk is uncertain.

Wash and decontaminate first, mask edges and sensitive trim, and keep the panel cool. Use minimal product and controlled pressure, clean pads often and stop if polish dries, grabs or overheats. Keep separate pads for compound, finish and wax. Abrasion cannot safely remove a scratch through clearcoat or correct failing paint. Use ventilation, eye and skin protection and control sling around glass, vents and adjacent vehicles. Inspect under several light angles before protection. The page below is process-led, with official Farécla charts and the exact coating controlling each choice.

Farécla: understand the range before choosing

Farécla develops automotive surface-refinishing compounds, polishes and application systems. This main Farécla collection contains G3 Pro care products, G3 professional compound, glaze and wax, the G360 polishing process, and matched G Mop pads. It is separate from any Farécla Trade collection and should be selected by exact product and process stage.

AutoMotoPart currently lists 13 Farécla items. The largest Farécla groups are 8 maintenance entries, 5 valeting entries. Farécla totals can change, so a category count is orientation rather than proof that a particular reference suits a vehicle, workplace or job. The exact Farécla listing, its current technical information and the item in front of you must agree.

What the Farécla page actually covers

Product group in this rangeCurrent entriesSelection focus
Maintenance8Match shampoo dilution, paint finish, wash media and runoff controls.
Valeting5Match high-cut pad to supported compound, 150mm backing plate, machine and speed.

Eight items are maintenance and five valeting. G360 appears four times, Super Fast five, compound three and foam two. Trial and full-size liquids share chemistry but not quantity; pad colour identifies a stage only within the known Farécla system.

Build a reliable shortlist

Begin with the least aggressive route that can achieve the required result. Establish whether the panel needs wash, correction, finishing, filling or protection. A glossy surface can still contain deep scratches or thin clearcoat, so appearance alone is not a removal target.

CheckWhy it mattersUseful evidence
Paint conditionFresh, cured, aged and repaired coatings tolerate work differentlyPaint-system data, cure time and inspection
Defect depthSanding marks, swirls and through-coat scratches need different actionLighting, magnification and thickness evidence
MachineRotary and dual-action movement changes heat and cutExact pad and process-chart compatibility
PadFibre, yellow compounding and black finishing foams deliver different cutFarécla pairing, diameter and clean condition
Speed and pressureExcess heat can swell, haze or remove coatingPublished range, cool panel and frequent checks
Follow-upCompound residue must be cleared before finish or protectionDedicated cloths, pads and compatible next stage

Do not chase one remaining mark by increasing speed or pressure blindly. If it catches a nail, exposes colour loss or remains near an edge, stop and assess paint repair rather than further abrasion.

G360 compound and finish system

G360 Super Fast Compound is the cutting stage. Official process charts pair it with Super High Cut or angled compounding pads according to defect and coating. G360 Finish is a later stage for swirls, holograms and gloss, paired with finishing foam. Preserve that sequence and clean residue between it.

Work small sections with minimal product. Prime or condition the pad only as directed, keep it flat and reduce loading near edges and curves. Transparent working residue still requires inspection. Clean pads frequently because dried compound and removed paint can increase scratching.

G3 Premium, glaze and wax

G3 Premium is a machine abrasive compound with its own supported speeds and pads. It may cut and finish in a defined process, but G3 Glaze fills and enhances minor appearance while G3 Wax protects fully cured prepared paint. Filling is not permanent defect removal.

Wipe with clean dedicated cloths and inspect before wax. Do not trap compound residue in badges or porous trim. Confirm fresh-paint compatibility and cure state; a protection product suitable for cured paint may interfere with bodyshop work or later coating.

Pads, backing plates and cross-contamination

A 150mm pad needs the correct plate diameter, attachment and machine. Centre it accurately and inspect hook-and-loop, foam edges and fibre face. Replace torn, delaminated, hardened or contaminated pads. Never let the plate contact paint.

Label pads by product and stage. Wash by official method and dry without distortion. Compound retained in a black finishing foam can recreate marks, while wax in a cutting pad changes cut. Keep floor-dropped pads away from paint until properly cleaned or replaced.

Wash, decontamination and protection

G3 Pro Shampoo belongs before machine correction where washing is needed. Use clean media, correct dilution and separate wheel tools. Remove bonded contamination by a supported method before polishing so it is not dragged around the panel.

Clean and Protect, All-in-One Polish, glaze and wax offer different balances of cleaning, correction and protection. Read the exact title and sheet. Do not layer products merely for more shine; incompatible residue can smear or hide defects.

Heat, coating thickness and safe working

Edges, body lines and repainted areas can be thinner or less tolerant. Mask vulnerable trim and monitor temperature by touch only when safe, preferably using controlled measurement. Keep cables clear and support panels or loose parts.

Use ventilation and control splashes. Polishing dust and liquids should not enter eyes, lungs, drains or vehicle openings. Inspect outdoors and under focused light, then record the process so future correction accounts for material already removed.

From identification to a checked result

StageGood practice for this rangeMistake to avoid
InspectIdentify coating, cure, contamination and defect depthCompounding every dull panel
MatchChoose exact liquid, pad, plate, machine and speedSelecting by pad colour alone
PrepareWash, decontaminate, mask and clean padsPolishing trapped grit or hot paint
CorrectUse small sections, minimal pressure and frequent checksChasing defects at edges
FinishClean residue, inspect, refine and protect if compatibleWaxing before correction is verified

Record Farécla product, pad, machine, speed, panel and passes. That helps prevent repeated aggressive correction and keeps the main range distinct from similarly named trade products.

Reading real Farécla references

The Farécla names below are examples from the current range and show why the complete description matters. They are not universal Farécla recommendations and should not be treated as a fitment list. Within Farécla, a shared family word can conceal a different dimension, connector, material, pack format, operating condition or installation side.

Example listingWhat to verify beyond the name
G3 Pro Shampoo - 500 mlExact G3, G3 Pro or G360 product and process stage
G Mop Super High Cut Pad - 6in. / 150 mm (Single)Paint type, cure, thickness, defect and safe removal limit
G3 Glaze Gloss Enhancer - 1 litreMachine, backing plate, pad material, diameter, speed and pressure
G3 Premium Abrasive Liquid Compound - 1kgCleaning, pad segregation, lighting, finish and protection compatibility
G3 Wax Premium Liquid Protection - 1 litreExact G3, G3 Pro or G360 product and process stage
G360 Super Fast Compound - 1 kgPaint type, cure, thickness, defect and safe removal limit
G360 Super Fast Compound - 100 gMachine, backing plate, pad material, diameter, speed and pressure
G360 Super Fast Finish - 1 LCleaning, pad segregation, lighting, finish and protection compatibility

The examples deliberately pair products and pads. Keep the complete Farécla title: G360 Compound with a cutting pad and G360 Finish with a finishing foam are related but different operations.

Common errors around Farécla products

  • Confusing the main Farécla range with Farécla Trade products.
  • Using finishing foam for heavy correction or a dirty cutting pad for final finish.
  • Transferring rotary speed guidance to an unsupported machine.
  • Compounding paint before washing and decontamination.
  • Chasing a through-coat scratch with more abrasion.
  • Overheating edges, body lines or fresh paint.
  • Mixing compound, finish and wax on one pad.
  • Applying protection before residue and defects are checked.

Farécla questions and answers

Q: What Farécla products are here?

A: G3 Pro care, G3 compound/glaze/wax, G360 compound/finish and matched G Mop pads.

Q: Is this Farécla Trade?

A: No. Treat this as the main Farécla range and retain exact product references.

Q: What does compound do?

A: It abrasively removes supported defects and sanding marks within safe coating limits.

Q: What does finish do?

A: It refines residual swirls or holograms and raises gloss after correction.

Q: Is glaze permanent correction?

A: No. Filling can reduce appearance without removing the underlying mark.

Q: Can any 150mm pad be used?

A: No. Match machine, plate, attachment, product and official pad guidance.

Q: Why separate pads?

A: Cross-contamination changes cut and can recreate marks.

Q: Can deep scratches be polished away?

A: Not safely if they penetrate or leave insufficient coating.

Q: Should paint be hot?

A: No. Work within product conditions and stop if the panel or residue overheats.

Q: Can wax go on fresh paint?

A: Only when the paint system and exact product permit it after adequate cure.

Q: How often should pads be cleaned?

A: Frequently during use and by the official method whenever loaded.

Q: What should be recorded?

A: Product, pad, machine, speed, passes, panel and result.
