So today I worked on a 2007 Mercedes ML350. Unfortunately I forgot my camera at home and wasn't able to get any before pictures, but grabbed it when I was done and got some afters. 
The car was moderately dirty, but surprisingly only had very minor swirls, which were not even visible under the swirl light. The only way you could see them was in the direct reflection of sun. To add, the car was not in need of being clayed either, so I went went ahead and did some maintenance work.
Here was my process:
Exterior:
Wash With ONR and Body Solvent
Wheels with ONR
Tires and Wheel wells with APC with foam sprayer
Clayed Hood and Roof
M20 Wax
Dressed trim and wheel wells with Hyper Dressing
Dressed tires with All Season Dressing
Cleaned windows with D Line glass Cleaner
Quik Wheel Detailer on wheels
Plast X on Headlights
There was also a big side swipe scratch that went along the side of the car which was about a yard long. Got it completely removed with M105 on a polishing pad.
Interior:
Vacuumed
Quik Interior Detailer
M40 on appropriate surfaces
D Line Leather Conditioner
Spot treatment of stains
Unfortunately I forgot to take interior pictures....
Here are some pics. Enjoy
