Car looks amazing what is the color code? In some pictures looks black, then brown or even grey...I thought I liked my 15 modern steel metallic but I really like that color!

Hey not sure of the code, but its called Golden Brown Metallic. I really wanted Modern steel metallic but we do not get it here in Sedan form :(

Beautiful work!! Made your ride look awesome!! Just curious, I have worked on Honda Paint before and IMO it is soft...very easy and forgiving. The German paints are harder and not so forgiving. Was that the same case for you?

Either way incredible work and thanks for the pics!!

Thank you!

Oh it was definitely soft!! That's why the Black finishing pad was more than enough to make the paint pop! In comparison the last car I did needed at least a white pad (bmw328i) and an orange in some cases. My Gti needed at least a white pad.

I prefer the harder paint because once corrected the finish lasted for longer (less marring and what not) but at the same time I prefer the soft paint for its easily correctable nature.

With this Honda I initially struggled and now I feel I have a good process dialed in :D
