Nothing less than the expected perfection! What wheel cleaner do you use? What's the Merc paint like over there? It's hard as diamonds here in the EU and a PITD to correct!!
 
Nice work Richie. 60 hours for just an exterior? you got a lot of patience man. Looks pretty awesome finished up!

Thanks Jesse. The Merc nano Ceramic is just as hard over here. That's why this car took 60 hours.

Thanks Barry. The interior was done as well but did not need alot of work considering the condition of the exterior.

WOW! thats a lot of hours! great job! it looks great!



Thanks Eric. When you are trying to achieve this level of perfection you have to put in the hours. This is not high volume detailing.
 
How it's done! Sun shots are beautiful as is the outcome of those wheels. I don't know how you Florida boys can handle those bugs! Geeze! I would say stop driving through the Everglades, but I know the whole state is crawling with those things.



Great work Richie!
