Default What Are The Paint Characteristics of Porsche Factory Paints?
What are the characteristics of paint used by Porsche regarding durability and ease of maintenance?
Is it a hard or soft paint? Does it respond well to correction if required? What is the typical thickness of the clear coat compared to other high end brands?
Have the qualities changed with the different incarnations of Porsche cars?

Soft paint, relative to many other brands. It does respond well to paint correction.

Can these paints be purchased through the Porsche dealerships?
