Derek,

I find that even with the plain city driving that I do, because of family commitments, and a few other priorities, I just do not want to spend that much time prepping, and detailing my cars. Our B200 is a daily driver. To me, as long as the car is reasonably clean, and I am able to maintain the internals of the car (checking fluids, air pressure, etc) and I know that the investment I made pays off (higher re-sale value, or the car lasting as long as possible with minimal maintenance costs) I'll be happy. Heck, I'm ecstatic as it is when i am able to speand about 2 - 3 hours on a Saturday or Sunday washing, waxing the car. However, I do have an appreciation when I see cars prepped and detailed since I've 'been there, done that.'

All the best, jtcb if you were to take on this project. Just make sure you have someone knowledgeable to assist you as Derek had suggested.

Cheers,

Martman
