YouTube - How to cure the soft paint on a Nissan GTR (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOSBZ-enf1Y)



claims to cure the soft paint with Nano Composite Material to help harden the paintwork? if so where can i get this stuff?

It looks like Gtechniq C1 maybe, or at least something similar.



OptiCoat is also very similar and available at the consumer level. Im planning on applying it (or having it applied) to my new Malbec black G37, which is very similar to the softness of the GT-R in that video.

yeah they`re just applying C1. It does improve it`s scratch resistance but not massively

Those Self healing reflow paints on the GTR are nothing like the soft honda paints



If it marrs, stick it out in the sun or put UV lights in front of it and the marks will dissolve or you can buff with polishing pad or finishing pad with a single polish system (p1, Xpert 1000 or System One) and your done. it wont mark up like regular soft paint

I detailed a red GT-R and posted it here. I used Opti Coat (the original) on it due to its soft paint.
