        Nice work Boss! And I'm wondering how you were able to clear up what looked to me like clear-coat failure. I'm impressed!
        Black......the ONLY color!

            thanks for the positive props everyone. We try our best, we do our own website, editing, video production, and detailing. No outsiders on this It was some very heavy oxidation, but there was plenty of clear coat still on there so we were able to correct it. One step and a sealer....boo-ya! Stay tuned for more, or check-out the site for a bunch more videos and photo galleries to see before/after results=)

                We're curious as to what you used on this too.

                  If I didn't know better I'd guess those were two different cars, particularly with what looked like clearcoat failure. Amazing transformation.

                      another video, turned out looking black again compared to how it was...it's shame at how neglected it was to begin with. If the owner brought it back to us and went for a higher end package it'd have been near flawless! still, 70-80% of the gunk out of the paint for our basic paint correction package isn't bad=)

                            On the Mercedes we used meguiar's 105 on the first step which cleared up most of the oxidation, followed by 205 on a softer polishing pad (sorry for such a delayed response!)
