This car is practically brand new yet butchered by the dealership. Holograms and sticker adhesive were present. Wheels/tire's suffered from silicone dressing over dirt.

Vacuum
Rubber mats cleaned

Nice turnaround. So, you're saying the clear was hard? The before pictures of the right side looks like the paint was super soft -or- maybe the dealer washed it with a brillo pad. Did your clay create marring on the finish? That's usually an indicator *for me* that paint is really soft.

It created a bit of marring, but it was also covered in crap which the claybar was removing at the same time. Honda paint that I have done in the past was definitely softer then this.
