So I've brought my '68 Mercedes to Chicago from San Diego and it needs a detail
I've always done Meguires over the counter hand detailing with clay / polish etc and it's been fine HOWEVER
Car was sitting in CA for about 3 months outside (its usually garaged)... its overdue for a detail. I want to use a machine and legit products.
Paint needs clay again... there is some slight spider webby things/swirls when artificial light hits it...looks pretty nice in sun still even up close. There is marks from bird crap and nature in general... lots of spots that use to never be there.
Couple pics attached. Car has not been detailed in over 2 years
I'm leaning towards griots polisher with Meguires 105 and 205...but feel this is the easy option and there is something more tailored I should consider. I've done a lot of reading but really need some advise now
the car has had a repaint. base + clear... its a nice paint job, I would say the clear is on the softer side vs. hard side
Whats a good set of products to use? What will really make it glow and shine? I am thinking of getting both 3" and 5.5" polishers to make life easy
Thanks!
