Perfect-It Ex Rubbing Compound Product Details:
3M Perfect-It Ex Rubbing Compound has a unique formula that rapidly removes surface defects as well as P1200 grade and finer sand scratches. The non gritty formula makes it safe to use on all types of automotive paint finishes.

Buff out 1200 grit scratches from automotive paint, marine gel-coat, plastic and many other coatings. Can be used with a wool or foam compounding pads. To substantially reduce buffing time use 3M Trizact 3000 grit or 3M Trizact 5000 grit first to refine the 1200 grit sanding marks.

3M™ Perfect-It™ EX AC Rubbing Compound is our best-performing rubbing compound for removing P1200+ sand scratches and surface defects before polishing, even on the latest clear coats. It is formulated to perform in all conditions, including high heat and humidity, without sticking to panels or leaving film residue. It delivers a longer working time, yet still reduces sling for easier cleanup.
This unique formula offers the highest level of performance
As part of a complete system for creating showroom-grade finishes, our 3M™ Perfect-It™ EX AC Rubbing Compound is the ideal compound for the critical pre-polishing stage in collision repair. This fast-cutting, fine-finishing compound removes fine grade (P1200 or finer) sand scratches and small surface defects on automotive painted surfaces. The compound works especially well on newer, harder-to-buff clear coat systems. It is formulated for longer work times, even in extreme conditions — especially important in places where heat and humidity are common inside or outside of the shop. The rubbing compound won't become sticky during use or leave a powder or film residue that can cause rework. Yet it holds on the compounding pad, reducing the mess, waste and cleanup time associated with sling.
This rubbing compound is available in a range of quantities including convenient, job-sized packets for maximized product use and inventory control. Quite simply, our Perfect-It™ EX AC Rubbing Compound is the highest-performing rubbing compound 3M has introduced for better efficiency and lower process times, both during use and through creating defect-free surfaces prior to polishing.
An Excellent Finish, Fast
At the heart of this specially formulated polish is aluminum oxide, the same mineral used in many of our top-performing abrasive discs and sheets. In fact, fine grade aluminum oxide abrasive discs are part of the Scratch Refinement stage of our Perfect-It™ Paint Finishing System, which includes our EX AC Rubbing Compound. This rubbing compound cuts quickly and uniformly to remove fine sand scratches and surface defects.
