I'd say it is harder. I really want to get it Clear Bra'd soon to avoid chips to the front end.

I'm soo glad I bough a DA. Made the buffing out of the paint soo much easier. I buffed out the paint with a Turtle Wax scratch remover, then waxed with Mothers cleaner wax and final detail with Maguires Ultimate Shine. I love the DA's detailing adapter.

Dual Action it is a RO. I didn't realise it was a cleaner wax before I started. I've got a Mother's spray wax that I'll probably use in the future.

ahh, i c. yah, ive been only using spray wax on my Z since i dont park her outside. she beads water like crazy when i hit her paint with a hose. beading is good for me cause i use QD all the time. keeps the lube on the panel vs sheeting off.

Speaking from experience.... The paint on the Camaro is very hard.
