    2016 Infiniti QX50 Paint Hard, Soft, or Somewhere In-between?

    I'm prepping a 2016 QX50 tomorrow for PPF later this week and wanted to know if anyone has first-hand knowledge of the hardness of the white version of this vehicle.

    I've done plenty of wax-n-vac's on Infiniti's of every flavor but I haven't corrected this specific vehicle. Searches I've done have produced results that were all over the map, from one that compared it to a Corvette to others that said it was comparable to BMW clear coat.

    Anyone with info they can share about this vehicle will be greatly appreciated.

    I spent this past weekend fighting with the Ceramiclear on a swirled out black 2008 ml500. If given the choice between doing that again or shaving my head with a cheese grater, I'd have to give it some serious thought before answering. What a coossal PITA that was! Coming off of just doing that, it would be nice if tomorrow's correction job was somewhat on the easier side.

    I have an 06 FX35 and dont think it's particularly hard or difficult to prep-out. Responded well to the usual polishes and pads.
