Didn't intend to really make a full write up of these as didn't take enough photos, but they're 2 stunning cars, so thought I'd just share a few after shots with you all.
First up is the awesome Mercedes CL600 V12 - I have this on weekly maintenance and have done for around a year. Trouble is, it was still getting valeted between my visits on the cheap by the valeter who always used to look after it and as a result the paintwork was starting to look pretty tired.
It was booked in last week for a 1 day enhancement detail and received 9.5 hours hard graft, by the time I was finished it was pitch black outside and I cleverly forgot my camera on the day anyway. I did snap these on my phone - all afters are prior to refinement. Please excuse the quality!
and one from that night when I was finished:
I was back today for a maintenance wash on it and to tidy up the interior, so took the opportunity to grab a few snaps whilst the sun was out!
Correction was carried out using Scholl S17+ on a 3M yellow pad and later refined with 3M ultrafina on a matching blue pad. LSP was FinishKare FK1000P and is later going to be topped up with Chemical Guys Blacklight as a long term test.
Whilst there this stunning GT3 was also given a maintenance wash. This was recently fully wrapped in Paintshield so is yet to have any further LSP applied.
Thanks for looking,
Rich @ Refined Detail

The noise of the Merc when you first fire it up is awesome, stupidly comfortable and the amount of gadgets it has is unreal (head up display, massage seats, sort of nightvision etc!)
The GT3 is also damn cool though. Shame the valeter got hold of that one just once and covered it in swirls

Jake - I've quoted a few recently in MK actually so will let you know if any of them actually come to anything
Chris F- Surely getting a Transit makes me more of a pikey?! No need for a van that big anyway 
Chris C - 
Fad - Yeh I know it's ridiculous how little they are worth now!
Deano - Weekly valeter is no more now I've finally made the client aware of what damage was being caused!
Danke Tom
