A New customer of mine called me saying he wanted me to give his truck and his 2010 e550 Benz a full correction , starting with his truck first.

He dropped it off this past Wednesday being he was leaving town for Thanksgiving.

This is how I received the truck ,wish I had taken better pics but it was so darn cold, I hurried to go back inside.
The truck was dirty, swirls, light scratches and the interior was dirty.

Here's the truck as I saw it.

So that's my before pics, not too bad but worth the effort to clean this nice truck.

Soon as I confirmed our deal I bought the following


Wolfgang Uber Compound
WG Gloss Paint Sealant
WG Trim Sealant
More 205
Pad holder
And three inch pads.

I did the following

Washed twice with Mr.Pink & a little APC
Clayed, used two bars of Meg's clay, that bad
Washed again
Compounded entire truck using the Über with a 5.5 inch orange hex pad with my GG6
Step two I used a white pad and 205
ISP wipe
WG Gloss Paint Sealant by hand , wow, great product.
Sealed all black trim using the WG Trim Sealant, again wow, a little goes a long way.

The Über made the job so easy for me, three passes and moved on, could have stopped there being how good it finished but still polished with 205.

All in all the truck looks much better , big Improvment.
I tried like hell to get some shots of the swirls but due to the color I didn't have much success.

Now for the fun stuff, the after pictures :)

The light on the left is not corrected, the right one is after using the Über.


Again, the same,light on the right is corrected only.



Entire panel corrected.
Sure does shine with only using the Über only

50/50 using the WG Trim Sealant

What a difference it made, dries quick, no oily feeling.


Rear bumper.

Missed a spot

The sealer made the the finish so shiny, slick, amazing how it looks and feels.

Thanks for looking :dblthumb2:
 
Ohhhhh man, if you don't get his BENZ I would be SHOCKED! What a nice turn around on that truck! I just did a similar one a few weeks ago so I know what you went through to get that in that condition.
 
Wow, that's quite a lot of work you've done! And you really brought it back. I know how with these big trucks, one thing leads to another, and wonder if there's a light at the end of the tunnel?

My back's hurting imagining it all, and what you had to do! :-)

I'm sure the owner was more than very pleased!

You turned what looked like a purebred work truck that in many areas had probably never been cleaned, into a show Blvd Street Crusin machine.

Can't argue at all about any of the Wolfgang Products, every one I've bought (which is a fairly considerable percentage of the line) have all been totally fantastic, and have more than lived up to claim.

I have a pint of the Uber Compound on hand, have not used it yet, and cannot wait to try it on something! LOL

How many hours did it take, trim sealant is awesome.
 
Thanks guys:)

He will soon be here to pick it up.
I have the Benz Job for next weekend.
Your right about one thing leading to another, just how it goes on these type jobs.
Can't wait to take a shower and take my meds, back all jacked up:)
Was fun on this one:)
 
20 hours.
Man the trim sealant is the real deal:dblthumb2:

Rest that back after 20 hours I'm sure it's barking, awesome job!
 
I sprayed a little of some carpet cleaner and gently wiped it but only in one direction and no pressure, I used a plush MF towel.
came right off:dblthumb2:

It's screaming at me. Lol
The guy picked it up,gave me a $100.00 tip.
Loves these guys:dblthumb2:
It cost him dearly but he knew how long it took me and what it all involved.
They will drop the Benz off on Friday.

I couldn't beleive the high gloss shine when I wiped off the WG Sealant.
My Gawd the stuff is incredible :dblthumb2:
Once I saw it I called my wife, I said baby, you gotta see this, she was like when will you get to my car and apply that?
I was like oh baby, I can't now, she rolled her eyes and walked away. Lol
You'll love the trim sealant a lot.
Make sure you only add two very small drops at a time, a little goes far.
This bottle will last me many months.

Really good product, does not run, I figure durability with 2 coats here in Jersey should make it through the winter.
 
Oh, I thought he was talking about the paint sealant.
Yeah that sounds about right what you said.
