Incredibally soft paint on today's job. Menzerna PO85RD (old formula) with black LC hybrid pads and Flex 3401 no faster than 2.5! This was SOFT ASS paint!

I specifically held on to an old 32 ounce bottle of PO85RD for exactly this kind of job. It paid off today.
 
Looks great Paulie! Very nice! Man, it must've been incredibly soft! Wow.
 
Great job on the most underrated and under appreciated car on the road today!

Thanks guys!

Scott, I could tell from the marring it was soft. Sometimes on paint like that...non metallic black...you can tell by the character of the scratches and this was brand new. He had like 70 miles on it. Dealer wash no doubt. I tried to get pics but I still suck at that!

Justin, thanks bruvva!

I agree, Klasse!

Couple more pics...

The car looks amazing.

I'm a huge fan of the NSX. For some reason though, I find it looks much better in person than pictures.
 
Nice work Paul!

Like others, I love the classic NSXs and the latest evolution in these super cars.

Like you, I find finishing out on soft paint to be challenging with gear-driven tools. I think this holds true for the FLEX 3401 as well as the Makita PO5000C and the new RUPES Mille. The only option if using any of these tools would be to have a quality ULTRA fine cut polish with a soft foam polishing pad, which is what worked for you.


I uploaded a couple of your pics to your gallery so they could be inserted for easier viewing.

Thank you, Mike.

Nate, this car blew me away in person. I agree about the pictures not doing it justice. I had been looking at it online since it came out (obviously in pictures) but to see it up close is different.
