    Great job as always. Glad to see you using Ultrafina for a change. I want to know a couple of things, how do you like Crystal Rock and what is a Metabo SXE 400? Glad to see you didn't wait long after vacation to post one up!

    Oooh gorgeous vehicle Phil, wife and I were just at the dealership looking at some of these Mercedes. C class vehicles are great but I prefer the E Class :worship2: :worship2: love the craftsman ship on these Mercedes :druling:

    Did you just use the mini metabo like a regular PC for the tight areas?

    I bet the owner hasnt seen many black cars look like that.

    I noticed you took paint gauge readings even though all you used was UF. Why is that?

    Not absolutely sure but probably because the owner wanted a baseline report to have so if more polishing has to be done at a later date you could take paint gauge readings again and see exactly how much clearcoat was removed after UF and the next polishing method. If you can print it out as easily as Carlos and FMINUS can its a great thing for the owner to have and I would request it if I knew they could.

    +1, I was going to ask the same thing.

    Regardless, the car obviously looks great, Mercedes really stepped up their game with the new C-class, IMO.
