'86 Mercedes-Benz 300SDL

[DaVinciAutoSpa]

This car was a challenge. It was the first black car I had ever detailed. I honestly wasn't sure what to expect with this paint. It had soooo many areas of it being repainting. It turned out really good and the owner was beyond happy.

The Process

Meg's GC Wash
Clay Lube w/ CG Synth. QD
P21S Wheel Cleaner
Meg's 105/205
Meg's No. 7 Show Car Glaze
Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant
Poorboy's Natty's Blue (x2)

Nice correction to the ol MB. That is the body style I love.

btw - why don't you get an account on Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket for all the auto detailing pictures you take? Makes it MUCH EASIER to post the pictures of the vehicles you wish to show.

Gotta love the old MB single-stage paint! It'll oxidize like crazy if neglected but it can always be brought back to life in the right hands. :xyxthumbs: [That would be you.]

Great job. I am a big fan of 105/205 and #7 for the older Benz. [see avatar]

Stephen, Great idea, I will do that. Thanks.


I love the older Benzs as well. Love to get an old SL or 560SEC.

Thanks Gary and Kevin.

It took me almost 12 hours to do both the outside and the interior.
