Great work Phil. That's a very beautiful car. I wonder what the price tag is on one of those...

 

great job phil. were those HRE's bare aluminum lips? What exactly did you do to get them so shinny? i'm having a hard time with my HRE's

 

Excellent result Phil. Love the color.

 

thanks guys! Optimum Metal Polish on the HRE's.

 

Nice work Phil, one of my customers has a CLK63 Black Series, such a sick car!

propper wheel fitment! I love it............. great work.

 

Amazing vehicle. I prefer the OEM wheel though... Great job making this one shine!

 

I too like the factory wheels.

That is one sick car Mercedes makes, glad to see the customer didn't really let it go.

 

Nice work looks great

Phil, did you polish by hand or machine? And if by machine, which one and which pads?

Nice work on a nice automobile.

 

Great job Phil! Congrats!

 

Looks great Phil. I have really been liking Power Finish I have not used it with a Rotary only Griots DA

 

power finish is great! I love it on cars that don't need much work.
