Yeah how is the paint on those? I hear about some paint being softer and harder... how exactly do you tell? By it's resistance to be corrected?

soft and hard paints are always tricky, soft paint you can over polish and "over correct" and mar paint etc.

hard paint is just that hard paint to correct.
