  • Mercedes C250 CDI New car prep by Envy Valeting

    Postby Envy Valeting » Sun Oct 14, 2012 6:09 pm

    At last, a long overdue write up from Envy Valeting.
    This is a new car prep on a Mercedes C250, not a 100% strictly true new car prep as by the time I got my hands on it; it'd done 900 miles and was 2 weeks old!
    Using the wet weather facilities again down at West Meon, great to have as it showered all day:wall:

    Image

    Image

    Wheels were soaked with AS Smartwheels, and door shuts etc blasted with AS G101. Mandatory SSF picture

    Image

    Wheel backs cleaned in the usual fashion, and fronts with Envy brushes.

    Image

    Snow foam was rinsed off at high pressure, then the car was given a dose of Concours Car Care's dissolver, and rinsed after.
    Followed up with a hand wash with the TBM, own brand shampoo and a Z sponge.
    Dried off and brought indoors ready to clay.

    Image

    Product range for the following stages was selected by the customer and Wolfs Chemicals the weapon of choice!

    Clayed with Dodo Gentle grey, and followed up with Wolfs Chemicals Shine and Seal via the DA.

    Image

    Leaving a nice slick finish as you will see

    Image

    Image

    Hard Body was then applied by hand and left to cure as per manufacturers instructions for 15 min, and buffed off via plush microfiber cloth.

    Gratuitous macro beading shot, look away if easily offended....

    Image

    As with all new car preps we do, we aim to go above and beyond dealer offered solutions so wheels were sealed

    Image

    As was the trim sections

    Image

    Interior was hoovered and then time to look after the carpets and mats too

    Image

    Dr Leather cleaned the seats, then it was time to seal the leather too.

    Image

    Image

    Image

    Image

    Tailpipe was polished, interior/exterior glass and vanity mirrors.

    Enjoy the afters

    Some from the customer upon collection too

    I was delighted to get the following feedback too:

    Hi Tim

    Thanks for your hard work today on my car. It looks absolutely amazing and I'm very pleased, well worth it and I'm very glad to have found you through the recommendations on the forums online.

    I will certainly be taking up your services again in the future!

    Cheers
    Paul
