Today's work.

My dad picked up his E320 today after service and found a pretty significant blemish on the front bumper. I whipped out the rubbing compound and gave it a shot. Turns out it was just a slight "coating", if you will, of a plastic guide post. Since I already did that, I decided that I'd do the rest of it. So here are the before/after pics.

good job , next time try a least abrasive approach . Rubbing compound can leave alot of scratches and take of clearcoats..

Thanks for the praise guys. And I agree, the late 90s and early 00s were great times for Mercedes bodies. This E class generation is one of those body styles that'll remain a classic. The satisfaction level after cleaning this car every week is off the scale. European cars clean up unbelievably well.

Real nice job. Pretty car.What color is that?

It's called Desert Silver Metallic. Kind of a silvery champagne color. It doesn't show too much dirt, but you really notice a difference when you start layering the wax on. As soon as I get my PC I'm gonna do a 5-7 step polish/wax combo to see how good it can look. I may even try Zaino, it tends to look better on lighter cars.

Good work. I would have been mad if I picked up my car and the service department bumped something.
