The yearly ocd clean of the SL320 Designo.

Just a few pics...nothing special but only Auto Glym products were used during this session.

 


 


 


 


 


The car was;

Washed using AG Body Shampoo Conditioner, Active Insect Remover & Intensive Car Remover.

Clay Bar'd using an AG Surface detailing kit.

Car was then washed again.

Auto Glym HD Paint Cleanser, Paint Renovator, Super Resin Polish, Ultra Deep Shine, Extra Gloss Protection and HD Wax (2 coats).

All windows were cleaning with Car Glass Polish & Fast Glass and all untreated plastic were coated with Bumper Care. The metal was polished with Metal Polish (believe it or not Razz )

Interior is still to be done yet, only got the exterior looking as spotless as I could as it's my Lil' Sisters leavers ball and my Dad's taking her to it in this.

Let me know what you think Smile

Thanks bud Smile

Only thing in my eyes that this car is lacking is a set of wheels which will fill the arches perfectly and some stance (lowering) to it. All of which is being sorted over the next couple of months.

Actually I think it's fine as it is.

The old man used to have an SL320 in that really light sky blue colour.

Seb, do you think the car will look better once it's got OEM Silver Arrow wheels fitted to it instead of the wheel mania wheels currently..?

 


wheels are currently stripped down and just waiting on the lips to be repolished and currently deciding on what to do with the faces.

John, the whole session took 9 hours in total. But was spread over 4 days as I was doing it in my spare time after work etc. Car was kept under a 2 gazebos to keep it from getting rained on etc.

Well a set like the one of the pic you posted would be great,and the lowering will be great,the handeling will be much better,even though I believe this car handels very well on the road,but having no gap between the wheel and arches is looking for result :D,good luck and keep us posted with such a car Smile

I would say so yes, this is the closest pic I could find to what my dad's used to look like, in this colour:
