I'll keep his number mate, he's only based in Sunderland, like I say, he did a good job with the neighbours car, and another lad in our street is interested in having his car done too. 2006 Mercedes CLS

Machine polish day, got a couple of pics before the guy came to show the before shots of the paintwork, in the sun, the whole car is covered in swirl marks, pretty severe too, I blame it on probably never really been looked after too well, I haven't really gave the car much in the way of a polish, just tend to give it a snow foam then a quick once over with some wax...

The car was in the shade when he had finished but took some pics anyway. It will need a few coats of wax to give it some more protection, but the paintwork is super smooth and almost like new with the exception of a few small areas. Not bad for a car that's coming up for almost 8 years old. He did comment on how good the paintwork was to start off with, only one area on the back bumper that had been painted, probably by a chips away type of company, and there were a couple of touch up's that been done, apart from that, he reckoned it was in good condition

I'm assuming so, I've been out pretty much all day and left it for my dad to sort. I got in around lunch time and he was just starting with the machine polisher so I'm guessing he clayed it first. 2006 Mercedes CLS

Apologies for the delay in getting some pictures, was out working all last weekend at my mates house, then all week, been out early, then back late so haven't been able to get any pictures of the car in the sun. Sods law though, today I have an hour to kill and it's overcast. Also, the car hasn't really moved since last Friday, well, It has, but that was maybe 2 miles in total, I still haven't got round to giving the car another wash so this is pretty much exactly as he left it. (If I'm back in from work an it's still sunny, I'll wash it and put some more pics up)

It's for a college project that he's doing, he's done quite few pics in the same style. You're right though, the neighbours must think he's certifiable! 2006 Mercedes CLS
