This is my 2nd detailing experience with a Vector rotary polisher. I`m correcting with Menzerna IP, polishing with Menzerna Micro Polish and wxing with Meguier`s NXT Paste. Before:

Nicely done. May I ask what year is your car? I have a 1997 brilliant silver E320 that is no longer brilliant. I have been wanting to do a complete detail on my car for a long time. I fear that a 12 year old paint cannot be brought back to life. Your car gives my car much hope at becoming show room condition again.

This is a 97 Mercedes E420. You should give it a try. The Mercedes paint and clearcoat is very high quality. The car was dull and looked beaten which bothered me for a long time. So with a lot of read on this board and look at some videos on youtube, I decided to give it a try with a rotary. The metallic paint just jumps on the car now. It sparkles. Good luck, let me know if I can help you with anything.
