    1951 Merc Detail

    If there is one thing I like detailing as much as boats, it would have to be classics. They don't get any better than this 1951 Merc I recently had the privilege of detailing.
    This car turned out nothing short of spectacular. For this detail I used 100% Wolfgang products. From soap, to a WG polish and finished with WG seal.

    Thanks for looking,

    Wow! What a beautiful looking car. I've always loved the older Mercury's.
    Keep up the great work!

    Awesome car and great work!

    Wonders when the 50s cars come in a new costume as the muscle cars have

    Looks great!

    May I ask, did you use a hose / regular wash method? Any concerns about using lots of water on an old car like that given potential for rust?

    I used RO Water from my pressure wash system. I then Dry the car with an air dryer. Spend about 45 minutes drying the car. I do everything possible to remove all water. The car is 100% painted as it has been fully restored. Not overly worried about rust. Now if it was not restored that would be another discussion.
