Mercedes SLK200 New Car Protection

Hi all,

It’s been a while since my last update – here is a job that I completed way back last September.

The vehicle in question was a brand new Mercedes SLK200 in need of protection.

On Arrival

Looking clean and tidy, which was to be expected.

Closer Inspection

A few flies and general dirt but nothing untoward.

First up were the wheels.

Alloys Before

The alloys were treated with a non-acidic wheel brightener, which was agitated with various brushes. The tyres & arches were also treated according and dressed later in the detail – plus the alloys were protected.

Alloys After

Exhaust Before

Exhaust After

The vehicle received the usual Refined Details safe wash process including snow foam. The paintwork was then prepared with a pre-wax cleanser and protected with Valentines Concours – the glasswork and plastics/rubbers were also treated accordingly.

The Results

Now off goes the hood…

A real pleasure to work on such a gorgeous car – I’ve never been a massive Mercedes fan but this new line of design is just beautiful!

A big thanks to the owner for their hospitality despite being very ill on the day of the detail.

Thank you for looking and reading as always…
Adam
