    Tips on detailing a black 2016 mb c300

    So I do have the lake country pads, orange, white, black. I'm afraid to use an orange pad with a compound. I'd rather not add more swirls even though the polish should remove it.

    Tips on detailing a black 2016 mb c300

    Sweet! Thanks for the tips. I think I'll go with the blackfire combo linked above. But do you think it's nessassary to do a compound considering the car is brand new? I don't know how abrasive the compound is. Also what pad combo should I go with each step?

    Tips on detailing a black 2016 mb c300

    Hi guys! Just got a new car! It's a black mb c300 sport fully loaded with wood grain and red leather interior. My other car is a 2015 wrx in world rally blue. I've never detailed a mb before so I'm not sure what the best route is to tackle it. I'm hoping it's not some crap soft paint like...

    do you have any experience with blackfire sealant products? Since its bogo I'm considering it instead of the duragloss combo. What would be comparable to the 105+601? If it's not something that's substantially superior I'll stick with the duragloss.

    Thanks for the suggestion and shade is not an issue for me. So I went with 1 orange just in case, 3 white, 1 black, 1 blue. I'll start with the m205 with one pad for each side and one for the top, hood, trunk. I know that's stretching pads thin but I'll take my time and clean them. Then...

    Thanks everyone for the info, I'm definitely going to start with the polish on a white pad to see if that will remove the swirls. If not, would the next step be to stay with the white pad and use compound or stay with the polish and use an orange pad? I'm so afraid of this "soft" paint.

    Luckily it's the one in the bottle. So meguiars ultimate compound for the swirls won't be too abrasive? I don't think I have many swirls and I hear Subaru is notorious for thin cheap paint.

    Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. I'm trying to compile a list of products to start doing some serious detailing on my car. It's a 2015 wrx in world rally blue that I've had since May 2015. I use to have an 05' s2000 which I sold after 10 years of ownership...
