Todd, would you mind commenting on your process on the side of the car? I assume that was all rubbed out by hand unless you have some super small 2" pads :P
Here is the same area after sanding with 2000/2500/3000 grit and polishing out with several steps... There is still a slight haze in the paint from the "DAC/P" and the medium soft paint. After the aggressive correction the paint was showing 5.2-5.3 mils.
Fantastic job. I'm surprised that you could use the 105 on it. I think my fear of paint softness on this car relates to the last one I did in the early '80's, a 1965 275 GTB with original paint that I rate as very soft. I'm scheduled to do this exact same car (a TR). What would be a comparison in a more common paint that would be similar in hardness to your description of "medium soft paint?"
