3M™ Scuff-It™ Paint Prep Gel is a one-step scuffing agent that makes panel preparation faster, easier and more thorough. Used in conjunction with Scotch-Brite™ Hand Pads (sold separately), Scuff-It™ Gel produces a ˝key-cut˝ scratch pattern on the surface that improves paint adhesion.
A scuff pad or sandpaper alone cuts ˝valleys˝ into the surface that can result in low paint adhesion. Our 3M™ Scuff-It™ Paint Prep Gel works with your Scotch-Brite™ Pad to create a more jagged scratch that locks in the application of primer or paint. The combination of pad and gel makes surface scuffing a quick, easy application requiring minimal elbow grease. Scuff-It™ Gel features a specifically formulated abrasive composition that provides a faster cut than other prep gels, and clings to panels and other vertical surfaces, yet rinses off easily with water. Scotch-Brite™ pads rinse clean of the gel for repeat use and the gel extends the life of the pad even further for greater shop productivity and economy.
