In general though, soft paint will correct much easier... if you take a PC, white LC pad, and 106ff to Porsche paint with moderate swirling, you might get it near perfect with just 1 pass over a certain area, whereas on an Audi you'll be asking yourself if you just had a dream that the PC was polishing the paint or if you actually did it.
Haha that was funny about the Audi thing. Looks liek i'll tackle those cars with more experience. Im going to start off on my own car, which is a Qno color code white 98 nissan maxima.
