Good day,



This Mercedes was an absolute pleasure to work on. The customer bought it two years ago and tastefully added the wheels, black grill and rear spoiler. The paint was tired, dull and had hard water deposits combined with many fine scratches. Initially, only a wash n' wax was requested but we decided that at least a one-step polish would make a big difference. And it did! I arrived at about 7:15am and my interior specialist Holden arrived a litte later.



PAINT

--------

1) Wash with CG Citrus Wash n' Gloss w/ ShMITT

2) Dry with Guzzler and CG Blue Waffle Weave

3) PO85RD on white LC CCS pad w/ Flex on 5 (2x on hood and boot)

4) CG EZ Creme Glaze via PC on gray LC CCS pad

5) CG Jetseal 109

6) Lusso Oro



WHEELS

----------

1) Meguiars Hot Rim Multi-Piece

2) P21S Sponge

3) Swissvax Wheel Brush

4) Sealed with Jetseal

5) Natural Look 2x on tires



INTERIOR

------------

1) 1Z Cockpit Premium

2) CG Total Interior Cleaner

3) Zymol Leather Cleaner

4) Duragloss Leather Conditioner

5) Detailers Domain Boar's Head Brush

Thanks! As a disclaimer, I do have to mention that Paul sent me an entire pack of his new Fluffer towels for free to test. I did not pay for these.



But would I pay for them? In a heartbeat! They are without a doubt the softest, most gentle towels I have ever used. I only use them for removing glazes, sealants and waxes. They have one side that has a bit more "grip" to it, and the other side is SUPER soft. Absolutely amazing for giving your vehicle that final buff...

I think I need to rethink Lusso, that black looks really nice the reflection is perfect I cant see any distortion on that hood shot.:wow:
