2013 Mercedes S550 in for a complete detail today. And my god this might be the perfect car. Effortless acceleration, the smoothest ride you could imagine and a steep that can blast Kevin Gates with the best of them. I’m in love.

Seconded! I like all these posts. Would love a before/after. Especially of that first gen Boxster and the S-Class Interior.

Will do! The car, overall, is really clean and it’ll be hard to tell from pictures but maybe you’ll notice a difference!

You got it! I didn’t take an “after” picture of the Boxster cause I was low on time and it slipped my mind, but I’ll get a few interior shots of the Benz for you!

I’ve got a palladium car, I know it hides swirls and defects really easily but once it’s polished it really allows some of the gold tones to shine through under sun light.

Ya I’m looking forward to how the paint is going to turn out! Thankfully it’s in really good shape. It just needs a good clay and a light polish, correction then wax.

That’s one thing I love about Mercedes, the clearcoat is hard so that it avoids some of the deeper defects that plague other cars.

I know people accuse this of being the Camry of the 1% (this and the Continental), but there’s a damn good reason for its popularity.

Exactly. German cars have great clear coats, especially if they’re maintained since new.
