Mercedes Benz – S63 AMG

Was contacted by this client to get her Mercedes looking better. Teamed up with Brett for this one.

The car was “cleaned” before we got there (real basic wash and vacuum). So we hit all the areas that are typically missed; door jambs, wheels, bugs, exhaust, etc.

The interior was pretty much spotless but was vacuumed and all panels were cleaned/treated with Meg #40, all leather conditioned with Wolfgang Leather Conditioner. All glass cleaned with Meg Glass Cleaner.

The exterior was clayed using Meg Clay (white) and was followed up with Wolfgang Fuzion for protection. The wheels and door jambs were cleaned with more attention using Meg Last Touch and various brushes. Once clean, they were sealed using Meg #20 sealant. Exhaust was polished using #0000 steel wool and followed up with Meg metal polish. Some minor scratches on the rear bumper were also polished out using M105 and 4 in Orange Pad on Griots DA.

Most of the attention spent on this car was on removing contaminants.

[Chris's FX4]

Excellent job.:props:


Can't wait for the Ferrari.

[mwtaco]

sweet! what did you end up using to clean the side skirts?

[Flash Gordon]

All right Stephan!!!

Looks like you've landed that client you were talking about. This is great news!

[LuxuryMobile]

Thanks for the comments guys.

Meg Body Solvent was used to clean up the "leftovers" on the side skirts.

Yes Flash, seems like its going to work out real well. Will be seeing them once a month.

Also, thanks to everyone else on the forum that gave me some tips through PMs. That is what makes this place great.

It works great for tar, bugs, and other spots that dont clean up easily. You can spray some on a microfiber and wipe off. Or spray on the residue and let soak for 10 seconds or so and wipe off.

For sure man, we will be back at it again soon.

Thanks, the Fuzion on the white paint was a good combo.
