Mercedes Benz E-Class AMG Full Exterior Correction (Part I)

[muyo]

good day and good morning everyone, remember the next ride im gonna detail after the clinic? yes, its the Merc E-Class AMG. waited for a week and finally i get this opportunity to bring this car back to alive where its been suffering for months, a year perhaps? why suffering? will a car suffers? will the owner feel the same too? a car doesnt have feelings, she couldnt tell anyone shes suffering BUT she will SHOW it to the owner that her body is full of scars/swirls. when she show it to the owner, the owner eventually felt the same too. this prove that the owner is actually care about his car, he drives it everywhere, he cant get to a place without her, a weekly care should be carry out to maintain to its best condition. thats why i've been called up to rescue her, to bring her confidence back to where she is in the showroom waiting to assist a good driver/owner. this car been washed with ONR and wax with OCW for its reward after demo for the clinic last 2 weeks. date was set, i rush back after church service. prepared all the things i want then start inspect around her again and found..

sunroof

dust found everywhere after a long journey back from penang, the rims are also need to be detailed properly as well. i choose OPC dilute 1:5 for deeper washing and at the same time it can remove the layer of wax that i applied.

water beads after applied OCW

during the wash

no more beading

after OPC wash then move to the rims..

please note this is not a magic, you need some effort to clean the wheels with assorted brushes and a OPC.

after all the correction are done then i give her ONR wash to remove compound residue

and then polish with OHP + double sided polishing/finishing red foam pad to level up the gloss and clarity

and last Opti-Sealed and OCW for maximum protection. one of my favorite combo, both product spray spread walk off
