Menzerna Polishing Compounds of Germany has set new standards for workability, uniformity, performance, and quality. Why else would Mercedes Benz use Menzerna polishes to perfect the finishes on their brand new vehicles?

First detail-02 Grand Prix

Just finished my first detail on my wife's car. Washed 3 times in the last 18 months and NEVER waxed!! ( I was overseas compliments of my Uncle Sam). Had to use the Advanced Swirl remover 3 times and the Advanced Finish Polish to fix the waterspot damage!! Sealed it all in with Mequires Gold Class wax.

Durring:

Re: First detail-02 Grand Prix

Wow nice job. It looks like that white was suffering from some light oxidation from not being waxed. Great save, thats for sure!

Re: First detail-02 Grand Prix

Thanks for the kind words. I NEVER thought that I could do this. (Amazing what the RIGHT tools for the job can do). I will do the rest of the car next weekend. The hood alone took 2.5 hours. Pics of progress will follow...... if'n Y'all don't mind......

Looks good and it looked like it needed some attention. Try some Pinnacle Liquid Souveran sometime. It looked great on white paint.

Pretty damn nice job for a first time on a car that was rarely cleaned.
