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?

Comments:
It's a large trailer and was a lot of work. I have had the trailler for a couple of years. Before this excessive detail the only thing I had done to it was put some sealant on it. The white paint on the trailer does not compare to paint on a car. I did not want to use anything more aggressive then XMT #1 to get out some of the scraches. It really does not have much clear coat on it. It was the first detail I did with Pooboy's Natty's Blue and EX-P Sealant. I can't say enough about it. Natty's Blue is a great wax for the price.

Nice.. never seen a Ferarri brand trailer.

Good work, the reflections look pretty good, especially with me imagining how bad the paint is compared to a car's paint!

I love EX-P on white. It always makes it look like milk. Great job, Gary!

Whats up with the Ballerina Horse go slap on a Raging Bull sticker before I don't let you borrow my Gallardo anymore

Agree, I love EX-P and Natty's Blue, great combo together.

Fantastic work Gary, that is one BIIIIIIIIIIG space to polish, seal and wax! Looks great.

And I agree with you on the EX-P and Natty's Blue. On the tub it says "easy on / easy off" and I thought it was a gimick. NOPE! That stuff goes on and off SO easy, makes taking off Zaino feel like rubbing paper over a stone.

Seriously though, it's hard to tell if it's a mirror or if you have a really big yard

very Very Nice Write Up and Work Gary !! I offer this service but I've always wondered about using a machine to spice up the shine on those thin metal sides. You have answered my questions and educated me on trailer detailing !! Thanks for the post.

Eric
