Very nice work Richard. That's an awesome job and I'm sure the owner has a new sense of pride in ownership in his car. It's great to be able to restore both the finish and rekindle that kind of enthusiasm.

Just awesome.

Thank you Richard for restoring the original beauty of my car. I believe the finish is better now than it was the day I picked it up from the dealer almost three years ago. Based on discussions with other detail shops, I was under the impression the only way to eliminate the machine swirls would be to re-paint the entire car. I was obviously wrong. One of my co-workers actually thought I bought a new car. I am very greatful for the extensive time and effort you put into this project.

Thank you

Impressed and Kompressed

P.S. I will be forwarding a list of people interested in your services.

Hi Kompressed!

Thanks for stopping by, I knew you were out there! You're very welcome. It was definitely both a challenging and fun project. I just wished I had another day to work on it!

I apologize for forgetting to leave my cards with you. I had them on my front seat, but forgot to get them to you before I left. I suppose you could also just forward this link to them. =)

Talk to you soon. (Oh, I'm leaving on a short trip today, to return on Friday, in case anyone has trouble reaching me.)

Richard

WOW, now that’s what a black Mercedes should like. Fantastic work, beautiful. Mercedes-Benz paint is extremely hard and it is not easy to work. I have black ‘04 E500. I wish I had your skills to get mine looking that good....Bill
