I received a call early last week from a very excited E63 owner. Having just found a rare White E63 Wagon locally he was eager to get it in the best shape possible. We decided a full stage III correction and CQuartz Finest ceramic coating was the best way to go. There is only about 70 of these in the states and I've been lucky enough to work on two so far, looking forward to several more!
Main Points:
-Heavy swirls/paint marring
-Hazy reflection
-CQuartz Finest coating
Vehicle was worked on for a total of 2 1/2 days, here is the process it underwent.


Paint condition





After vehicle was decontaminated a test spot was worked on to find the proper combination for the highest level of correction and gloss. Mercedes uses a ceramic clear so a pretty aggressive compounding step was necessary.

Test spot video:

After correction and polishing work, vehicle was then prepped and CQuartz Finest was applied in two separate coats.
Here is the result of over 20 hours of work, Enjoy!
