Afternoon all
How hard or soft is the paint on London Black Taxis? What pads and compounds would you recommend?
I saw a brand new-ish black cab last night and the amount of swirls on the back was unbelievable
Thanks in advance

I wouldn't be surprised if they were only single stage.
No idea on paint hardness but as always take a test area and start with the least aggressive compound/pad and work your way up until results are achieved.

As above, they are relatively soft I did a correction on one 18 months back. Granted it wasn't a London black cab it was from Manchester but they will be the same.
