    Vehicle #9 The final one! Mercedes E class

    So the last vehicle on my trip belongs to a good friend of mine who owns Amber Refrigeration in Port st Lucie FL. Thanks to him this trip was made possible as he gave me full access to his warehouse to come and go as I please.

    This detail was a freebie as it was the least I could do for him.

    This 2010 E class has very short miles and was in good shape. This car has the factory ceramic clear coat option designated by the "C" in front of the paint code. This can be a good thing and bad. Being that he washes and maintaines it well I feel that the ceramic clear is beneficial to prevent washed induced marring. If it had been neglected then I would of been in store for some serious polishing to bring it back to life. Thankfully that wasn't the case here.

    The interior was freshened up with McKee's fast interior detailer and McKee's total interior cleaner. Carpets were vacuumed and windows cleaned with Invisible glass.

    After a standard wash and decontamination process. The paint was in really nice shape. Only a few areas needed some spot polishing. That was handled with my Rupes Nano and there Compound and polish.

    Then the wheels and glass were both coated with the respective McKee's coatings and the paint was treated to Crystal Serum Light.

    Tires were dressed with Hyper dressing and the plastic trim and engine bay was dressed with Stoners aerosol trim shine.

    50/50 of window trim being polished.






    Little scratch in the light being handled with the Nano.

    Totally agree. Without him this trip may not have happened.

    Thanks buddy. I am beat! As for the PC I figured since I had a ton of work I would see how it would do since it's compact in comparison to my g21. My g21 is still my go to but truth be told, a PC with a microfiber or LC thin pro pad is a pretty stout setup.
