This past weekend I worked on an S500 Mercedes both on the interior and the exterior. Customer requested me to focus more on the interior in which I did. I went with D-151 PRC on the exterior which cleaned it up pretty well considering this paint was super hard. I believe this has the Ceramiclear. I tried the WWLC7 yellow wool pad & some 105 to see how well that would do & after 2 passes that did the trick may use that on the next detail. I proceeded with 151 being that this car is always outdoors and is silver which makes it difficult to see any swirls at all. Customer was quite happy with the end result and I now have a maintenance program set up. Next detail will focus more on the paint & some engine cleaning & one more pass on the mats. Scheduled for October I'll see how well D-151 holds up.
INTERIOR
- Wiped down with APC 10:1
- Carpet was spot treated with APC+ & extracted using my LGM which saw the last of its days. A new LGM has been purchased.
- Leather seats were treated with Leather Cleaner & Conditioner from Meguiars
- #40 on the rubber door gaskets
EXTERIOR
- Washed with NXT
- Clayed with the Mild blue clay bar
- W-8006 with some 151 PRC on the G110
- WB on the wheels
- HD on the tires
TIME: 7:40
Before
After
The paint was was really rough to the touch. The mild clay was good enough to completely remove the bonded contaminants
Customer is going to have aftermarket wheels installed so I was requested not to spend too much time on these wheels
After I cleaned and extracted the water the carpet looked clean. I didn't notice the yellow spots until after I took a flash photo. I tried removing the yellowish stains but to no avail. They had to stay. As long as flash photography is not taken you will nt be able to see these stains. Strange.
Here is the first pour out
& the second
Driver side rear door armrest 50/50
Rear seat 50/50
& an artsy photo of me on the G110 working the D-151
