Briliant Silver MB CL55 AMG

This car is probably one of my favorite cars of all time. I love the style of it and the fact that it's a 2 door. It's a 2001 with only 27K miles on it, so it was in very good condition to begin with. It is a retail job for one of my good customers. He just wanted to get it cleaned up because it was getting a little dirty from the nasty roads here in New England. The wheels & tires on the car are the winter set.



To start, I washed the entire exterior, wheels & engine compartment



Clayed complete exterior with Opti-Clay



Polished exterior with Final Polish II



Hand application of Jeff Werkstatt's prime to complete exterior & wheels



Hand application of UPP x2



Used extractor on interior carpets & mats



Meguiars Quick Interior Detailer on inside vinyl & leather



Stoners Invisible Glass on all windows & interior wood trim



Dressed tires & wheel wells w/ Super Blue dressing





These pictures don't do the car justice because it was a bit overcast today when I took them.

I'm not sure just yet. I just started using the Werkstatt products so I haven't done enough cars to tell which I like better. I was limited on time today, so I decided the to use the UPP on top of the prime because it is rediculously fast & easy to use and produces great results on silver. I just did a titanium color Ferrari 360 Spider that came out awesome using Wekstatt's prime followed by 2 coats of AJ. Really shows off the metal flake. I'll post some pics the next nice day.
 
What an awesome looking car! Very nice work. This may be a dumb question but what are the little door looking things in the rocker panels for? :think:
 
Love those cars and the work.

If memory serves me right, that's where you insert the "jack."
 
So it's a 01 with 03+ tail lights and 600 rims. Those tail lights threw me off. When I saw the 600 rims and no 'V8 kompressor' emblems on the side I was like ***? Then the engine set me straight. lol. Enough blabbing. Very nice job!

Wow, good eyes! The car is a 2001, but he put 03' taillights in it because it makes the car look newer since the lights are the only difference between the 03's.



The rims are his winter set that are off of a 600 like you said.

Lol. What can I say? I love mercedes-Benzes. If I had a 01 or similar I would put on the 03 tail lights too. I think they look alot better. My parents plan to get an S class soon, which as you probally know is the sister car to the CL. Anyway, again nice job! You always do amazing work on amazing cars! :xyxthumbs
