Detailed: 2008 Mercedes Benz S600 - V12 Recovery
Here is a restorative detail of a 2008 Mercedes Benz S600. This 510 hp twin-turbo V12 producing 612 ftlb of torque, was in desperate need of a proper detail. It became victim of a poor detailing job before hand, fortunately Mercedes paint, post 2005 model year, is a ceramic clear coat making it unbearably hard. Makes it difficult to scratch, but difficult to correct as well. The jambs were all waxed, wood all polished and sealed, as well as the chrome. Leather all cleaned, conditioned and moisturized. Wheels polished and sealed as well as the exhaust. Quite a bit of time was put in to this car.
Paint Process:
Menzerna PowerGloss - Yellow
Menzerna PowerGloss - Orange
Menzerna 203 - Orange
Menzerna PO85RD - Green
Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant - Black
Pure Carnuaba Wax
Leather treatment:
Lexol Ph Cleaner
Lexol Leather Conditioner
Mink Oil
Chrome Treatment:
P21S Polishing Soap
P21S Finish Restorer
Wheel Process:
P21S Wheel Gel
Clay Magic
Poorboy's World Wheel Sealant
Wheels Before
Wheels After

A few 50/50 shots: Some of these photos were taken after a single pass of Power Gloss, still showing some defects.
