Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG
Absolutely stunning car visually and mechanically! Amazing hand crafted AMG V8 under the hood of this beautiful coupe.
Needed a little bit of work. I didn't have time to take befores, so afters only. The car had wax residue all over it...in door seams, on the exhaust tips, front grille etc.. Had slight swirling as well.
Process:
ONR Wash
Clay
Wash
106 via White Pad on Flex
Pinnacle Souveran by hand
Megs NXT on the tires
Interior
Thanks for looking!! |

Re: Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG
Outside looks great.
A couple tips for the interior would be to clean the pedals, door trim, and mats with a mild detergent and dress them with a 4:1 diluted mix of 303 Protectant and water to give it the nice matte black finish to really set off the interior.

Thanks for the tip.
That's actually a before of the interior, I was pressed for time and didn't take an after. It was clean to begin with as you can see (Besides the mats)
I used Woolite 6:1 on the mats, worked great! |
