Auto car wash special: 2008 Benz C350. Beautiful car, abused like clockwork every Friday at the local Autospa drive-through car wash. For a car less than a year old, it was in pretty rough shape:
Test spot using Optimum Polish II / white. No go. OPII/orange. No go. Stepped up to M105 on white and after 2 passes we were good to go. After the first coupe panels, I went to M105 / orange and managed to cut my working time in half and finished the compounding with that combo.
Once compounding was complete, I finished out with M205 / white. Left almost a flawless finish. I had a VERY tight schedule to get this car done, so I ended up doing a lot of the finishing out over night with no sun to inspect for light hologramming. Everything looked great in LED and Halogens and I was praying to the detailing gods that the sun would treat me well in the AM!
This was one of those details that just 'goes right'. No curveballs, no issues, just a great car to work on. All finished up with a layer of EZ Creme glaze and CG Butter wax.
Thanks for reading!
