I've had my 2012 C350 Sport for just over a week now and it's only covered about 300 miles so far. I've been reading through lots of threads in here on detailing, and getting more confused with each one I read! I need to know:
- Should I do anything now to protect the paintwork and alloys (I didn't opt for any of the Merc dealer's "treatments")?
- If I should do anything, what's best to use? (I take a lot of care when cleaning cars so I tend not to suffer from swirl marks.)
- I read a lot about "claying" but have no idea what this is. Sounds like something I should avoid or isn't necessary on a brand new car - but I don't know.
- I've read that "Blackfire Wet Ice over Fire" is particularly good for metallic black (mine is a beautiful Magnetite Black). Any opinions/alternative suggestions?
- Keeping the Alpaca Grey leather looking top notch may be a problem with the comfort-ventilated front seats. I don't want to fill all the tiny ventilation holes with leather dressing. Any suggestions?
