Suggestions for mother-in- law's new Black 2008 Mercedes CLK350.

My favorites are products in Klasse AIO, S100, Pinnacle Liquid (older version) and the sealants in past are Klasse SG which is tricky and also had some FMJ.

Open for suggestion both sealants and carnauba waxes for this car.
Does those cars have a different paint or do I have to do any special procedures or be careful of something not to do?

Thanks

i would do menzerna 106 finish pad, then clean with KAIO, then go FMJ.

Wolfgang is very nice, dont get me wrong, its just that I find UPP to offer what I like on blacks, and truthfully most other colors. Try the new Spray Wax too ...

bought that also

Thanks for the responses. I guess I need to order today. Any special tips on those sealant? Wolfgand I think has to cure inside at least 12 hours?

wolfgang doesn't necessarily need to cure for 12 hours inside. the vehicle just needs to be moisture free for 12 hours inside or outside.

I used the Wolfgang/Souveran Kit. I was pleased with the results.

Came out really nice, did the dealer have the car washed and induced swirls on the paint? Reason I ask I just bought the wife nissan sentra blue in color with not to bad swirls sort of light, I did the containmation system yesterday and clayed while it was drizzling outside just wanted to finish that all up, so today I can come up with a game plan for the car. Took my rotory w/5.5" pad white w/merzerna p106f did a section and looks like that might be the ticket. I might top off with a sealant or swissvax paste wax don't know yet will post pics; how did you get the thumbnail pics like that?
