Hammered 03 MB SL Correction

I received a call about 3 months ago concerning a paint correction for a 2003 Mercedes Benz SL. I met the client and looked over the condition of the paint and gave him a quote based on what I saw it was going to be a long process. Once his schedule allowed us to do the car we headed over to his house to start the correction process. While we started the Mercedes we had our good friend Demyan from LUX PDR come with us to knock out dents on all of the cars we were going to correct eventually. He is truly a master at what he does as I have never seen someone pull out dents as big as some of the ones he tackled. It took nearly 4 hours to wash and prep the car before pulling it in * the car hadn’t had a wash in about 8 months. It took us 4 steps in most areas and 5 in certain areas that needed more, not including the 2 times we had to pull it out and wash it before the next step due to the dust issue. Needless to say 2 1/2 days later we finally had the car dialed in. Enjoy the photos.

great work. That SL was jacked up.

Did take training course for PDR?

 

Thank you, and no that's a friend of mine who owns his own PDR company.

 

Wow that car was pretty dirty. Great job on making it shine.

 

That SL is flawless. Perfect job!

 

The sl looked like it was washed with a brillo pad and the wheels looked like a chocolate milkshake tipped over on them.
Do you straight charge the customers on the pdr from your friend?

 

great job!

Fantastic job JImmy!

 

im sorry but how does a person pay 100k+ for a car and let it get to that point

 

great job btw ...just disgust me to see paint in that condition

 

It is a VERY common for people to let this happen, and they have the money to get it done..............but spending it until it is absolutely needed is another issue. "Lewchee & Justin" on the road getting it done(Mobile suckness).

 

Awesome work guys ... that MBZ was beyond trashed.

 

Great turn around on the SL. your work is a 10.

 

Fantastic finish guys! Merc looks mint in the afters.

 

Thank you for all of the compliments

 

Amazing job, Jimmy.. and thanks again for the tips on jeweling at the Meguiar's workshop on Sat! -Anthony
