How to care for a new S63 AMG?

Congrats on your S63. That def is a sick car. I just got the s550 in exactly the same color, solid black with black int, p3 and amg package. Not as close in performance as yours but good enough for me. Black though is very tough color to work with honestly.



Spent total of 8 hours cleaning up the car. It DOES have a clearcoat btw. Started with clay bar from Zaino to clean up the contaminants. It is admittedly a big car. Cleaned up with menz SIP with white pad on PC and then followed by menz 106ff (for CERAMICCLEAR) on white pad. On with swissvax cleaner fluid and topped off with 2 layers of swissvax concorso. In between the layers, touch up with pinnacle souveran spray wax. The result is a huge improvement over dealer prepped which leaves a lot of fine scratches.



Dont even bother doing anything if you havent got them prepped. Nasty scracthes will be very apparent from the angle across the sun. Better to have them professionally cleaned from the beginning before u add on layers of wax. They will stick better that way.



Sorry I havent got a chance to post the pics.



widyhs,



Thanks for the info.



Why did you use the menz SIP and menz 106ff? Is this the SIP you used (PO 083)?

Menzerna Super Intensive Polish, Menzerna PO 83 , Mernzerna PO85RD 3.02



Did you apply the SIP by machine or hand? Did you end up using the APO 060 Sealing Wax?



How does Menzerna compare to Klasse overall?
