2010 Mercedes E550 – Full Paint Correction (South Florida)



I detailed this owner’s 2008 BMW 328i about 2 years ago; he recently just purchased this E550 and wanted to have the paint corrected. When first looking at the vehicle outside in the shade it didn’t look to bad, but once we put it under the lights the paints true condition came out and it wasn’t pretty.

Man that`s my favorite Benz to date. Love the lines and black just enhances them.



Great, flawless finish.
