This Mercedes SL 550 came in to get cleaned up with a multi stage paint correction & 5 year ceramic coating from StonerCarCare! It didn't look too terrible as we were working our way through the wet work portion of the job, but as we finished up, pulled it in, and threw a light on it, we saw a different story...
Once the car was decontaminated with a clay bar, I played around with a bunch of different pad + product combinations for the compounding stage of the correction. After 3 or 4 different combos, we settled with an orange griots garage foam pad and koch chemie's heavy cut. The one thing I love about heavy cut from koch chemie is the lack of micro marring. MANY times with heavy cut products, you get a massive amount of micro swirling which can be difficult to polish out, but this was clean!
After it was refined, then coated, it was apparent that this was a CLASSY car. Mercedes paint is so difficult to work with, but their black paint definitely is one of the best looking by far! I hope you all enjoyed it, if you did, leave a Like! Otherwise, toss a Subscribe if you enjoy car content.
See you guys next time!

    Ha ha loved the bit with the petrol cap door, we’ve all done that 😂. Love Koch Chemie products, try the motorplast for all engine plastics, rubber spray on wet leave for an hour or so then buff any residue BOOM like just came off the production line . Great vid Caleb 👏👏👏

    I totally understand what you mean by how difficult this paint is from Mercedes, especially the AMG. I did GLB63 and it was the hardest to work with. I used orange pad with M105 it did work well because it was a 2022 (6 months old car) but still difficult paint. Man you got some of best quality videos out here on YT. Your videos need to go viral. 😊 Awesome bro!

    Thank you so much! Merc's give me such a headache, but I'm telling you, that Koch Chemie Heavy Cut was a total game changer.

    😂😅…the fuel door scene is funny! Same thing happened to me when I bought my VW Tiguan. It’s probably a German car thing. 🥴🤷🏽‍♂️

    I have a tip for you if you polish with Ultra cut from KochChemie then add Micro cut then there will be little to no dust when polishing, then you have to Do not use your air compressor 👍

    I will be! I'll be at the Autoform booth / walking around. Can't miss me, Ill have my full camera/stabilizer set up. No E39 though. I have an low pressure fuel pump issue on my R, so the rest of the week is dedicated to swapping that instead of finishing/prep.

    I would love to, but I don't really get to pick and choose. It's whatever a customer brings to me! Lol, I definitely want to get my hands on some older stuff though.
