I am waiting on my PC7424 and pad delivery. I just got back from one of our local body shops. I thought it would be a good idea to practice on something besides my miata. I know the fender they gave me has clearcoat on it. My 96 black miata has single stage paint. Can anyone tell me if the paint mazda used back then was soft paint. I know it is just another anal question. I am just trying to get my head around the process of geting rid of the marring in the miatas paint. Thanks for the help.
