    All the Honda Fits we've worked on have had very, very soft paint. Of course, it should be noted that none of them were 2012 models so things could definitely have changed. But with the ones we've worked on, D151, M66 and sometimes even just M06 were enough to clean them up beautifully. We would at least start quite gentle on one of these for a test spot, but our gut feeling is the DAMF is going to be way more aggressive than you need here. Unless, of course, the paint is now very different (could happen) and the defects are fairly severe.
    I am going to try the D151 or 205. What is the pad of choice for the Honda fits. I am using a Porter Cable 7424xp. TIA

      Depending how bad the defects are you could use either the yellow polishing or black finishing pad. A light touch with the yellow pad and either of those liquids would be a good starting point for your test spot though. Do that, re-evaluate the finish and take it from there.
