Detailed the Sprinter (e320 cdi) ;) Turtle Wash n Wax through the Pressure washer, followed by wash n wax sponged over, rinsed down with the pressure washer and a shammy afterwoods.
Megs Stage 1 paint prep ready for Megs stage 2 Polish, did this then the Megs Stage 2 polish was followed by there stage 3 Carnauba wax. Ive never been impressed with the megs stuff on the Black 850 or the Grey 850 R, it seems to leave a smeary residue and dark colours, But on the silver this does not seem to notice at all and leaves a lovely smooth glossy finish.
I then Used the Megs Gold Paste wax and i cant recomend this product high enough it really does finish the car off leaving a ultra smooth paint mirror finsh and a smell of buble gum:)
Now to the little mod lol, Decided to remove the Silver strip that ran across the centre of the Airdam, just didnt like the look and prefer a Big open looking Air dam myself (blessed with the R bumper on the 850's) lol
I think its transformed the front end of the car looking fresher and more purposfull, I'm sure i will get hated on the MB forum but hey ho lol i like it. ;)

Prefer it without Gav, noticed a few of these knocking about. I like them.
Looks tidy mate but I still think you should get a project on the go. ;)

I had to go and find the above to work out what you meant. Your mod looks alright
I envy you with your detailing skills, although I've come on leaps & bounds this year with mine - emptied a can of WD40 into the Scooby's engine bay...

Thanks bud, ive been practising Wet sanding on a Old door from blacky, and this is one area im going to try and master, Re Volvo lol, you never know ive bin toying with the idea of a c70 as a second car but with limited funds atm i dont thinks it viable.
Really love the Mercedes and its so much better than i could have imagined it does everything i need a car to do atm :)
