Great job. Pretty soft paint, huh? I simply love Souveran on black, still a solid product after all this time.

Thanks!



And yeah, the paint seemed pretty soft. Most of the defects came out quite easily via PC.



And I agree about the Souveran. It`s so easy to apply and buff off. Who cares if it only lasts 2 weeks when it`s so simple to use.

Nice pictures. The CR-V is on the short list for the next car purchase. Good to know that the paint is on the soft side.
