Rennteck SLK -55 mercedes correction

Really nice and very fast SLK-55 completed recently, a few areas had to be spot wool compounded but the rest of the finish was not real bad.



Lot's of tar and grime as the car is tracked



Jambs were dirty and needed attention



Weapons of choice , needed all three rotarys as they all have their strong points



Using the three inch pad on the tight areas





Jewelling with 85RD at low speed



Light was reflecting off my truck after fine polishing and the paint was popping



C-pillar now has great clarity



Pre-LSP pic



Nice texture black Renntech wheels now "super clean"



Cleaning all areas



Polishing door jamb painted areas



Interior pics





All done

Nice work on a nice car... but I do not understand the fascination with all black wheels.

Yes I was originally slated to do the 500E, but it needs the hood re-painted and the right rear door, did a few of them in the early nineties when these were hot.
