Farecla G6 Rapid Liquid Compound

Why Modern Refinish Paints Require Specialised Compounds

Modern automotive refinish paints — particularly high-solids systems used in professional bodyshops — have different chemical compositions than older paint technologies. They cure differently, respond differently to abrasives, and require different compound chemistry for optimal results. Using older compound formulations on modern paints often results in poor cutting action, inadequate gloss development, or excessive product consumption. Farecla G6 Rapid Liquid is engineered specifically for these modern paint systems, delivering efficient cutting action and professional gloss without the trial-and-error of using generic compounds.

Filler-Free Technology for Permanent Scratch Removal

Many cutting compounds use fillers — inert particles that fill and mask scratches without actually removing them. These fillers wash away with the first rain or vigorous wash, leaving scratches re-exposed. G6 Rapid uses no fillers; its aggressive abrasive action physically removes scratches and sanding marks, eliminating them completely. This means results are permanent and durable, with no risk of corrections "coming back" after the vehicle's first detailed wash.

Dry Use Advantage for Efficiency and Cleanliness

Traditional paste compounds require water for machine application — the pad is soaked, excess water spun off, and the compound applied to a damp pad. This water-dependent process creates mess, slows work, and introduces variables (water hardness, temperature) that affect performance. G6 Rapid's dry formulation eliminates these complications — apply to the foam pad, begin polishing immediately, no water messy residue to manage. This efficiency appeals particularly to professional bodyshops where labour time directly impacts profitability.

Professional Bodyshop Safety Through Silicone-Free Formulation

Silicones in polishing compounds can contaminate fresh paint in nearby spray booths, causing adhesion problems and finish defects. G6 Rapid's silicone-free formulation allows it to be used safely in bodyshop environments where paint application is happening concurrently. This versatility makes it ideal for shops that need to move between correction and paint application without product changes or potential contamination.

First-Stage Cutting for Aggressive Defect Removal

G6 Rapid is a first-stage cutting compound — it has aggressive abrasive grain designed to remove surface defects, sanding marks, and scratches that lighter finishing compounds cannot touch. The companion product, Farecla G10 Finishing Compound, provides the second stage — refining the surface and achieving maximum gloss. Using G6 Rapid first ensures defects are completely removed before moving to the finishing stage.
