I've recently bought a DA Polisher to spruce up do a thorough job on the hawk.
I've got some megs 105 & 205 to do the polishing along with an orange pad and a white pad. Has anyone done any DA polishing on the hawk paint? Would you consider it hard or soft paint? Whilst I can do a test area, I'm trying to work out whether 105 will be needed or whether 205 will be good enough as theres not really any scratching, only swiriling!
Any advice appreciated - oh btw, it's black paint if that makes any difference

Always start with the softest combo and work out the right one. Subaru paint has a reputation for being soft, but that's never a guarantee.

As above start with the white pad and 105 and see how you go. No two cars are the same. My old JDM Hawk was medium certainly not as soft as say Honda or Toyota.

Be careful with the orange hex pads as I've used them before and noticed that they heat up quickly which is bad for paintwork.

As above just start on your white polishing pad and see how you get on.
