Mercedes 500 SL

However, before we could start work on this amazing Mercedes 500SL there are a number of steps that need to be carried out.

Prior to any ceramic coatings application Marque one Detailing will undertake the following steps to ensure the paint is perfectly prepared for the coating.

These steps are undertaken on every ceramic application, this is known as the ‘preparation’ stage.

Preparation stage 

Full safe wash

Clay bar

De-tar

Water spot removal

Iron fall out remover

Paint depth analysis 

Colour Range Index  (CRI) inspection

1,2 or 3 stage paint correction

Panel wipe

Coating application

24 hour cure time

Pure water rinse and dry

When we have completed the preparation stage, on this Mercedes 500 SL, we could then apply the Special Signature ceramic detail package.

This package includes everything below, plus under vehicle cleaning and all painted areas on the vehicle being coated, i.e. door shuts and centre console.
