RE: New E500 With Swirls and Surface Scratches

I would not accept an auto body shop to do this. they are not a hell of a lot better than the dealers detail scratch masters. I would insist on a professional detailer. The body shop will, in all likelihood, use a high speed rotary buffer which will take off clear coat. As I said earlier, you will have swirls and scratches on your black finish within a month of owning it.

If you are that anal about scratches and swirls, you should not have ordered black, unless you want to be a slave to the finish. I can speak from experience about a black car. It is a tremendous amount of work to keep them perfect but when in that state you cannot beat them.

Good Luck,
