    Menzerna On A CL600

    Had lots of cars to do today, several washes and two details. First detail was on a 911 Porsche but the owner came back before I could take some pictures

    I was able to finally use the Menzerna Finishing Touch Glaze (FTG) and I am very pleased with the results. It goes on easy, a little elbow grease is needed, breaks down nicely and does not smear or gum up like #7 or IHG.

    I need to try it with my Cyclo or the PC and see how that works out.

    I first cleaned/polished the paint with Light Cut applied with my Cyclo, then the FTG and then topped it with FMJ. FMJ is a great product, I love the Menzerna line more and more, each time I use them.

    I was hoping for more sun and I wish I had more time to lay down a coat of Pizazz on top of the FMJ as the FMJ does not leave a very "wet" appearance.

    Emjoy the pics,
    Anthony

    Now I would like to see the Pizzaz on top of this since you don`t think the FMJ left it looking very wet....looks slick in the pics! Nice job. I`ve also got to search on your glass prep. Beautiful glass!
    Don`t cry honey. I wasn`t polishing the car again. I swear! :naughty

    Thank You

    As for the glass, I used "Light Cut". Very versatile product! Place a small amount on your applicator pad or works also with a PC or Cyclo. I then finished the glass off with some EagleOne 20/20.

    In a word, SWEET! As usual, great job, Anthony. I also like the Menzerna line and looking forward in trying the FTG.

    I wish to thank you all for your compliments, much appreciated

    I also noticed that none of the pictures show a full shot of the Mercedes so I just resized this profile shot.

    Ive detailed probably over 5 CL`s throughout Palm Beach, and they`re simply a JOY to work with. The CL body construction lacks the `C` pillar that most other cars have, giving it a continuous and sleek shape that beautifully flows.

    The CL 600 is by all means a sleeper when you from the outside in. However, please note that there is a monstrous V-12 that i beleive pushes roughly 493hp!!!

    Great work Anthony....the pics would portray your hard efforts MUCH better if you had a little more sunlight i beleive.

    That I believe is a pre 2003 CL600 which didnt have the bi-turbo V12 that pushs 500HP they are all underated to 493 to not hurt the CL55 sales.
