As usual, all pictures and text are lifted from detailing world.
Also its not me doing the work. Its my brother, so I can't answer any detailing questions.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This delivery mileage Black Edition came in for a "whatever it needs" new car detail (you could hear it coming a mile off!):











A sign of things to come?





Wolf's Decon Gel was used to clean the wheels after a thorough pre-rinse:








Then rinsed off:




Auto Finesse Citrus Power was then used on the tyres,arches,exterior trim etc:








After the usual wash and decontamination process the car was then brought inside and dried off with the Metro Vac:



Aerospace 303 sprayed in the engine bay and left to do its thing for the next few hours:





Now onto some correction work. The rear bumper had some marks where it looked like something had been rubbing against it in transit:



The Meguiars MF System soon sorted that out though:





A few more before and afters - remember this is a new car and had not been prepped by the dealership:




















Once all the correction work was finished I prepared the paint for waxing with Auto Finesse Tripple:




Then waxed with Desire:




Swissvax Autobahn on the wheels:




Swissvax Pneu on the tyres:




Werkstat Prime Strong on the glass:




Using a fine mist of Acrylic Glos to help with the removal of Prime:






Interior also detailed including Nanolex Textile Sealant for the fabric and leather:







Engine bay after any excess 303 had been buffed off:









And then the exterior after a final wipe down with Auto Finesse Finale - apologies if some of the pics are a bit washed out as I was still getting used to my new camera at this point






















































And as a bonus here's a stunning Guards Red 997.2 GT3 Club Sport that came in for a bit of correction work. The owner was working abroad at the time so his mate drove it down from Inverness for him and it would appear he enjoyed the journey going by all the bug splats







As usual the paint was pretty damn sticky on this Porsche so the Megs MF system was put to good use for correction and then refined with 205:





Sanding pig tails left from the factory:










New Nanolex Trim Sealant being put to good use:





Same as the AMG, the LSP was Auto Finesse Desire followed by a wipe down with Finale:













































Thanks for looking.

Bet he loves detailing brand new cars must be the easiest job in the world

Merc interior doesn't look anything special, bit like an Astra.

Black Series doesn't look as great without the spoiler.

Both of those dashes are shocking, they look like they could be from a vw

Aside from that, both are lovely on the exterior. The porsche more so.

I think I prefer it. I never thought the rear wing suited it.

Something nice that flows from the centre console to the gap in between the seats.

The Merc is stunning. Needs a rear spoiler tho to match the agressive arches.

Shocking that they'd sell a car in that condition given the price you pay

2 of my favourite cars, lovely!
