Had the opportunity to work on this gorgeous automobile.
Wash
Clay
It had a tremendous amount of water marks do to sprinklers, however, they were not etched.
Also, the entire car was swirled. It is a Daily Driver.
Menzerna FPII - with a meg's polishing Pad x 2-3 passes depending on the area requirements. slightly engaging the head of the PC set on 5. My first use of this product and I was absolutely delighted with it's performance. Smooth, and flawless. So easy to use. Sprayed the pad every so often to keep it from gumming up (it was a hot day mid 70's SoCal Valley Heat). I needed two -three passes to completely remove the swirling. The MB paint simply responded beauuuuuuuutifully!
I attempted to use the Menzerna Intesive Polish just to see what result may bring. It was to aggressive for this application. It was creating unecessary marring. I experienced no marring with the FP II.
AIO - Layered the bottom of the car with AIO and selected points around the contour of the car to create contrasts from the sealent and subsequent waxed areas.
I used PB EX w/ Canuba as the sealent.
LSP = S100.
The owner was absolutely thrilled at the results. He immediately took it for a spin and came back as if he had just purchased the car. That is such a great feeling to see you responsible for a love reborn.
Before:
After Menzerna FP II:
Final with LSP:
My goal was to achieve a Liquid Glass Look.
I would like to personally thank Anthony Orosco and Nick Carberry for their input on some questions I had in tackling my first Mercedes. :xyxthumbs
