    Mercedes GLB350

    My most recent detail. This thing is still in rough shape on the paint side. The surface is far beyond roached from automatic carwashes and it makes me cringe to know it's leaving without looking pristine. But, customer didn't ask for paint correction so... I used gray clay to start, and after that didn't work, I had to break out black clay to decontaminate the paint. Where it's parked, the lawn care people have managed to embed grass/debris in to the back because common sense isn't common when it comes to mowing and shooting clippings AWAY from vehicles. Grrrr. I polished it up to request and got it out the door and paid.

    Too bad you couldn't correct it. Nice beading on there though!

    Good work, that thing looks clean
    My goal in life is to love God, family and myself. To love others and treat others right.

    You can only do so much when customers only want a clean and shiny vehicle. Too bad for that Mercedes.

    Did you use the new BF AIO?

    No. I used the Wolfgang Uber AIO I had and was very disappointed. I am fully vetted to Wolfgang Compound, Polish, and sealer, but this stuff just did not work at all except make the paint bead very well after it rained. I've got some 3D Speed on hand now and Blackfire One Step that should be here tomorrow. I'll give them both a whirl and see what I like. Both are great products from research.
