Whatever it is, it's probably dirty.
Oakes - Detailed: 2001 Mercedes S430
A non-paint corrective detail of a 2001 Mercedes-Benz S430, owned by a friend's members Mother, this car is extremely well cared for but needed a good clean up. The paint is in surprisingly great shape for having 169k miles on it! The detail does not entail paint correction, so there are no juicy 50/50 shots to show the difference in the buffing. However, did receive a one-step polish to help brighten the silver!

Great work. Silver is probably MB's most forgiving color...except maybe white...but then I'm a little biased. 
Keep up the great write-ups, too. Great to read.
