Re: 2007 Mercedes c280
While I love Opti Coat I have to ask why didn't you fully correct it?
If they like it then that's good but a year or two from now they might not.
Don't get me wrong it looks great but when you going to coat something, especialy black, I would fully correct it before coating. Just my 2 cents.

I thought it turned out pretty good but I guess not to your standards

Re: 2007 Mercedes c280
I'm not saying it doesn't look great, did you read all of my post?
I'm just trying to inform you.
I know your not a pro and for you not being a pro you did a fantastic job.
So with that being said, when you use a coating you want to fully correct it. Because after you coat it correction is very difficult.
So next time take more time to get it perfect, but you don't have to, this is just my opinion.
And don't be offended I'm just critiquing.

Aris good work. I understand what your saying but I think your just being modest about your work. Looks pretty amazing in those photos. I think you did a good amount of correction prior to opti. I too would say that I corrected my wifes car 80% but I reality correction was as good as it will get before I optied.

Very nice of you to do up your parent's car like this. It looks fantastic now, and for a 2007MY car it looks awesome! Do they regularly run it through an automatic car wash, or do you wash it properly for them?Michael Stoops

Only during the winter months they take it through the touchless car wash. The winter that just passed my dad decided it was a good idea to wipe down the car after it was driven in the rain...swirls and marks all through that paint. I told him never to do that again and told him to leave me to wash it...we will have to see if he listens lol
