Black Mercedes GL450 - I didn't know it was gonna be a big vehicle

[Totoland Mach]

So, the owner of the black Aston Martin Vantage came to the shop and said he has a Mercedes for me to do. Heck, I thought it was just another car! And, he said a previous detailer made a mess out of the finish. So, I find this Lincoln Navigator sized Merc in the shop with a finish that is pretty bad.

Can we say rotary swirls boys and girls?....





So, washed this SUV and used 2 bottles of Meg's Hot Rims on the wheels....they were pitch black on the inner rims.

I decided to test the worst panel that I took a pic of. Tried Meg's 83 (which is my go-to product) and didn't do the job. So I broke out a bottle of SSR 2.5 that I haven't used in several months and it worked. Followed that with Menzerna 106 (which the Mercedes crave anyway) and the finish bounced back.



I ended up working on this big boy for 10 long hours, but the owner is super happy....and I'll have his Boxster and Ferrari in the next lineup.











Got a big car for tomorrow: Bentley Flying Spur that "must" be done in 1 day....I sure hope it's not black.

MAN.... UR THE MAN!!!!! I'm not worthy... I'm not worthy!!!! I know someone that has one of those in white and her wheels are black! she's too cheap for me to detail it.... so she waits only till she needs to take it to the mercedes dealership for them to do their crap job on it.

Your talent is amazing. That reflection shot just blew me away. Imagine that a black Mercedes! Are the Boxster and Ferrari black too. We should just call you Johnny Cash.
