I did this MB on Saturday. The owner just picked it up and had a few issues he wanted fixed. The main issue was some deep scratches across the hood. I also did some paint chip/scratch touch up. I started early but didn't end until late so I don't have very good after photos. 
Process:
ONR wash
Claymagic clay with ONR QD ratio
IPA wipe down on paint chips and apply touch up.
Wetsand with 2000, then 3000 unitgrit
SIP with purple foamed wool at 1700-1900
106ff with white CCS @ 1200-1400
DG 111 to protect
Wheels/tires cleaned with ONR
Tires received nxt tech protectant
wells received Long Haul tire sealant
After wash/clay:
Trunklid before SIP:
After SIP (had to turn a light off I blew a breaker with both on)
50/50 after SIP
Hood after wetsanding touchup and scratches:

After SIP:
50/50 on door after SIP:
Afters:
Sorry about the lack of good afters. It was 9pm and the sun was long gone.
Next up is a friends '97 Miata. It has under 60K on it but needed some cleaning up. The owner is trying to sell it and only wanted a wash/wax and interior cleaning. The paint was oxidized and lacked the true color. I decided it needed a little more than wax so I gave it a very minor polish just to spruce it up.
Process
Purple power for vinyl top and scrubbed with stiff brush. Protected with 303
Purple power to clean Engine bay, 303 to protect
WB on wheels
A2Z on tires and srubbed with stiff brush
Nxt wash
Poli-seal with orange LC CP pad 1200-1400
OCW to buff off
Tires dressed with Long haul tire sealant
Interior
Vac
Steam and wipe with MF
IG on glass
303 to protect

It really could use a full polish session but it looks much better then before.
Questions or comments?
