2017 Mercedes SL63AMG
3,100 miles
577hp 5.5liter twin turbo V8
0-60mph in 4.0 seconds, 190mph top speed
Brilliant Blue Metallic, design edition



This luxurious rocket came in to me for a little clean-up/TLC. The paint was very rough, had swirls, water spots, some scratches and scuffs and in general needed a caring hand to get it looking as it should!

This was a ‘quick turnaround’ job. My client needed his vehicle back quickly, so I only had 1.5 days to work on it.




Tools/chemicals/process/etc:

Washed with Adam’s shampoo.
Wheels cleaned with Adam’s wheel cleaner.
Tires cleaned with Adam’s tire and rubber cleaner.
McKee’s37 hydro blue was used to seal the wheels and calipers.
Clayed with Griot’s medium mitt.
Defelsko PTG.
Scangrip lighting.
Metro vacuum.
Metro masterblaster.
Flex 3401, Flex XFE15, Rupes 3” and iBrid.
Misc. foam pads.
Misc. MF towels.
Griot’s fast correcting crème.
Adam’s paint prep.
Adam’s ceramic coating for LSP.
Autofinesse glass cleaner.
Pinnacle leather cleaner and conditioner.
Pinnacle exhaust cleaner and brightener.
Griot’s adhesive remover.
McKee’s 37 high gloss tire dressing.
Adam’s APC for engine compartment.
Engine compartment trim coated with Adam’s trim coating.


As always, thank you for looking and comments/questions are welcomed!

Beautyful work, I can imagine how difficult it could be to deal with people that have little respect for a fine automobile. I have a friend with a S63 that he runs through the car wash.
Thx for the product list.

Stunning as always!

How do you like the McKee's 37 Hydro Blue? Does it have decent longevity?

^^^Thank you! I really like it. Use it a lot for wheels when the client doesn't want them pulled. About 3 months longevity.
