    Brushed stainless care

    I have learned from experience with other high line cars that it's always cheaper to buy a vehicle with the particular equipment you want installed at the factory. I am thinking here that I could pull the panels and replace the metal inserts with the wood ones. Do you know if just the...

    Brushed stainless care

    I like the conservative look of the OEM wood package, but the metal trim on my Sport is very attractive too. I guess I am just trying to find out things about Mercedes parts and accessories for future reference. I am not at all interested in the wood kits that are attached with double side...

    Brushed stainless care

    Does anyone know if the brushed metal parts on my 2008 C300 n4matic sport can be replaced with the optional wood package- is it possible to do, can the parts be bought at a reasonable price, or is there another way I can get the wood parts to replace the brushed metal parts? I don't want to...

    Thank you. I am 65 years old, and a "dinosaur". My word is my bond, my handshake is as good as a contract, I don't make promises I don't intend to keep, and believe you measure a person well, a quote is appropriate here "character is what you do when no one is looking". I do not suffer fools...

    Brushed stainless care

    Just to confirm what has been mentioned, as I was waxing the refrig (with Pinnacle, of course) I noticed a light amber pin head size fish eye on the finish. That, is the smoking gun on whether or not it is clear-coated.

    Brushed stainless care

    It is a pleasure to be associated with the members of this forum, and yes, I have been at forums where there are some jerks, but in those cases the adage "don't argue with a negative person because you can never win", and/or" :dblthumb2:a fool spoken to wisely remains a fool". I consider myself...

    Brushed stainless care

    AHA!! That is exactly what I thought and why I asked the forum members before I really screwed it up. It is a lot like the repair I had done on my 87 Corvette- you can spot shoot the damaged base coat area- in this case the scratches- but then you must shoot the entire panel with clear coat...

    Review for Meguiars Ultimate Compound

    I am planning to do a full treatment with Pinnacle, but in the past, over 8 Corvettes, 3 BMWs, and 2 Z cars I always end up going back to either Meguires (most likely) or 3M products. I will review the Pinnacle products in the Spring when it will be warm enough to work in my garage. Nice...

    Extra gloss for white color.

    My Benz is palladium silver, and I have bought the complete line of Pinnacle products from Autogeek. I will report on performance quality after I wash, clay, polish, and wax my Merc. I bought them in the belief that they are excellent products and although it may be the best around, I just...

    How to use clay?

    In my 65 years, I have owned and detailed many fine cars, and believe me I have used every new product the market ( I am an auto supplier's dream). Zymol gives the pina colada feeling about as long as it takes to apply, and I could go on and on. I am in the slow process (weather here in NJ this...
