Re: [MBZ] Martha Returns!
If it was that easy... The choice of products and processes is really dictated by the condition of the finish. It's difficult at best to suggest that what I used on this car would work well on another. Considering that when you get this aggressive you're taking some of the paint or clear coat off in the process, you have to be very careful about what you use and how you go about using it. I would not be this aggressive on a two stage paint (clear coat/base coat) as there would be a significant risk of polishing through the clear coat. That's what I like about single stage paints - there is usually enough paint that you can get aggressive and have something to work with. The older MB paints of the 60s and 70s are like this - they like to get chalky and oxidize, but there is so much material there it's easy to polish the finish out and recover it nicely. What you can't see on the S500 is the paint condition, which is pretty lousy. Lots of hairline cracks, scratches, etc., that aren't through the paint but are present in the surface. A repaint is truly the only way to fully recover the surface, but for mere cosmetics what I have done will suffice. Dan Sent from my iPad On Apr 22, 2013, at 6:01 PM, Kaleb C.

Re: [MBZ] Martha Returns!
3M Imperial Hand Glaze is good stuff, and something that works well for more modern vehicles with clear coat finishes, especially dark finishes that easily show swirl marks. Understand that a glaze is essentially a very fine compound used to fill scratches after polishing. It's not a wax. If you want to wax a car using 3M products, I recommend their Perfect-It Show Car Wax. Excellent stuff and very easy to apply.

Re: [MBZ] Martha Returns!
I doubt it. After talking to three or four professional detailer, and I use the term only to describe someone who is making a living doing this, none of them really seemed interested in recovery work. I suspect there is too much time required, and it's likely that someone who has a car in this bad of shape either won't care or doesn't have the money to invest in recovering the finish. Another aspect to consider that will play out over time is how long the finish will stay this way. I have no idea if upon exposure to the elements that it may revert back to the former condition. Hopefully, it will take some time. This is not something I would want to be doing every month or two (but I would if necessary.)

Google is your friend as always, but here is a link to their web site: http://www.collinite.com/automotive-wax/insulator-wax/ There is a technique to preparing it that is not discussed on their web site. It has a thick, almost gelatinous texture, which makes it tough to use right out of the bottle. Before using, you put it in a container of hot water for about 5-10 minutes to warm it up and make it homogenous. If you don't do this it's really difficult to use.

No, I would say maybe 12-15 hours for someone who knows what they are doing. If your 560 isn't as bad as my S500, less than that Send it down to me for a week or two and I'll sort it out.

As for the black backgrounds on my web page, I've done it for many years. No particular reason, just like the contrast, I guess. I really need to redesign my whole web site, but I don't really have the motivation, to be honest.
