1981 Mercedes-Benz 380SL | weekendwarrier and michakaveli

Lookin' good! Those seats look familiar. I had to use a Leatherique dye kit and many applications of their rejuvinator to bring my 1987 seats back to life. Those grill pieces can be replaced without spending an arm & leg, too.

Great work on a grand old machine! Well done.
 
Thanks for the kind words guys. I had Chris, aka michakaveli post this, since his camera is worth 10 times what mine is. I took the befores, the rest are his.

I'd like to note that the following day, I polished beneath the front and rear bumpers, dressed the front spoiler, and the wheel wells before the owner picked it up.

I understand this car was "detailed" previously, and the owner was told there was nothing that could be done about the pink areas. We also found buffer burns, and wet sanding marks that a previous detailer left behind.

Again, thanks to Chris for helping out. This was his first experience with single stage.
 
Thanks guys for the kind words! Thanks David for letting me lend a hand :thumbup:

The pads were David's... nothing like purple foam red wool :p I brought my Makita though:thumbup:
