Well, first off, I cannot stress how much I hate this weather and lighting. The days are short and cold...



Anyways, I left for this first detail before the sun came up. :shocked I got there and did a full detail on her Mercedes E320. Came out very nice but the pics hardly do justice. You can be the judge. The inside wasn`t bad at all. The exterior had plenty of tar down the side and brake dust on the wheels. Not to mention the chrome trim was very dull. The lady garages it and is neat (single too), but never takes the effort to wash or get it washed.



I used:



-Gliptone ProBuff w/White Pad

-S100 by hand

Do you use a dressing on the black trim along the rockers (on the MB) or is it durable enough to wash and dry? GREAT job on your car--I assume this is the second coat of SG post rotary experience? Either the lighting conditions suit your car`s finish better than the other thread (rotary) or the second coat of SG is to be thanked. In either case, my hat is off to you.

The Mercedes rocker panels were washed and dryed with the rest of the car. They were painted black, not black plastic. I used the rotary on them the same way I did the white paint.



Yes, second coat of SG since the rotary experience. The second coat definately added more gloss. The lighting was good, as the sun was going down. Had to snap a few shots. :D
