[drive 'n' shine]

Had this monster to do today, and after a marathon session with a 7 series yesterday, i roped in my mate Jay from Absolute Detailing to be my tag team partner for the day.

Owner had recently purchased the car, but after its first post purchase wash he noticed that the paint lookd "odd" in his words, odd turned out to be lots of buffer trails from the dealer prep, that had been filled with SRP :rolleyes:

Not to many befores as we were against the clock on this one

So after washing & claying car was rolled inside for inspection

Most of the car was done with 106FA on yellow megs pad, with a few deeper scratches needing 3.02.

Very nice indeed Bryan. Superb.

106FA on a Merc????

Yep, tbh i have never found Merc paint to be as hard as BM or VAG paint, plus the paintwork wasn't too bad apart from the buffer trails

Nice work, truly lovely car.
Despite the Chrysler intervention, the upper-echelon cars never fail
to impress.
