  • 1954 Mercedes 4 Door Hardtop...

    Sorry it took me so long, but here is the final pictures of the 1954 Mercedes we did after the detailing class I hosted in Dallas.


    This is a project myself and some fellow MOL members from around the country took on at my shop in Haltom City, Tx. After about a month of planning, everything was all set up and everyone was arriving. People came as far as Indiana, Oklahoma, some from Texas, and one guy came all the way from Holland! I was really impressed at how smooth everything went. I expected problems from the start, but everyone had that "can do" attitude! Just like to thank everyone involved! You guys did an awesome job!

    Anywho, here are the pictures...
    Just a note, the pictures without my logo were taken by some of the other individuals there. I didn't want to put my logo on their pictures.

    Here's the crew that stayed until the end of the day. Those that left early aren't in this picture.....sorry guys



    And the victim....1954 Mercedes 4 Door

                      Wow Nick, we had some fun working on the car but it's amazing how good you made it look. All the tight spaces must have cost you a lot of work Did you finally found the phone number?? What LSP did you use?
                      If you think it it's expensive to hire a professional,
                      hire an amateur first.

                        Really bummed I couldn't get away from work to be a part of this - what a cool, cool car. You guys did a great job saving some seriously ancient and hammered paint!

                              The hazing shown around the direct light, it that normal? I'm getting the same thing no matter what I do on my Black Z28 Top. I've tried everything but still get that tiny hazing...

                              Black is the only color it shows up on for me...
