First post.
I have always been into detailing cars. Dad is a mechanic. Was big into racing, worked on a few pit crews, etc. His love of cars has influenced me the same way. He has taught me everything he knows about detailing and I've been helping since LONG before I could drive. We work on cars on the weekends and that's usually how we spend a lot of our time together.
After joining the forum and reading and learning as much as I can, I've learnt that a lot of what I do is fine...but there are a lot of ways to improve how I do things.
I just purchased a 2004 Mercedes E320 4Matic. It has been professionally serviced since day 1...I have all of the service records...however, the owner has never really hand washed it to my knowlege - just runs it through car washes. The car is absolutely beautiful inside and out. AMG factory chrome wheels. Leather is in fantastic shape.
Unfortunately there is snow and salt on the ground here in Canada...so there isn't too much I can do. Just looking for advice on preparing it for winter as best I can. Can't wait for nice weather so I can really get to work on bringing the paint back to it's former glory.
