All that needs is a wet sand. Looks good. Once you do, it will be like a mirror.

Wet sand 1500 2000 3000 panel by panel compound polish out with rotary buffer

Orange peel lots of work to fix that

Need symbols how do I get the letters

You knew ahead of time that anything but perfect was going to be unacceptable so next time just go to a shop that going to charge you the going rate . How are they going to make any money if they spend days making you happy? I really hope that the point of this video wasn’t to stress out Maaco about the $1,200 job they gave you.

Skipped quite a few steps..

The way you caught your own joke😅😂

Wet sand is what it needs then it will shine and take away all that ruffness and orange peel.

It's called ORANGE PEEL they have to color sand it with water and then buff

Poor entitled dude, Noone should have to hold your hand and tell you what everywhere person knows, $1200 won't get you a paint job starting at bare metal and $1200 won't get your car in an oven to cure the paint and then get it cut and buff. We have a saying in TEXAS " God bless his little heart." LOL

Take it to deatiler who knows how to wet sand and buff.If you try to do it you will screw it up.The clear is going to be so thin .Maco dosn't put much on it.

That part you showed was not from a 1999 mercedes e55. They gave you a part from a different brand and model car. You have the 722.6 transmission and the data plug that will always leak at some point, is easy to replace and it looks like a small dixie cup with pin holes on the bottom. Thats not a Mercedes part you showed.

Doing this job for the second time and this video was a perfect refresher and had some tips I didn’t do the first time! Thanks!

I have a Benz with the original paint job and it's exactly the same. Get it waxed

It's maaco......people expect a lot more and that's not happening..... They aren't always careful or consistent. Old theme you get what you pay for.....good ain't cheap and cheap ain't good

Wet sand and buff that shit.

When you buy a car here in Utah , you get the title and a bill of sale , 2 bill of sale , one for you one for the buyer , . Before you sign that bill of sale , you need to do a pre buy inspection, because after that , the bill of sale it’s AS IS , car it’s yours .

Looks great. Orange peel expected if not wet sanded. Maaco offers color wet sand for extra and definitely worth it on Mercedes 040 black. Would have let them keep it another week to finish.

It's "orange peel."

The car needs to be cut and buffed. Wet sand and polish it. I had really good results getting single stage polyurethane from Maaco, but I also sanded, primed and sealed the car myself. Prep is key to any paint job. Cut and buff and it will look way better.

I don't know why you didn't put what year your Porsche is?? 😢

Looks like my 2019 jetta's oem paint. And i love it i might actually go with maaco to change the color

what you expect from maaco? for a $1k ? why would anyone that cared about a car take it to maaco, and the other channel u talking about i also a lop taking a lambo there what a poser

$1200 you got what you paid for

What you have is orange peel. that has nothing to do with the surface. it’s the way they sprayed it, but it can be fixed sanded and polished out as long as there’s enough clear on it. The reason the side panels have it more than the hood is because of gravity. The weight of the paint if you put it on too heavy, will create that I’m with you though I would not have been happy seeing those results.

The texture shows, that it wasn't polished enough.

Looks the same

You get what you pay for kid, lol

Wow! You made the right move by having Concorso detailing provide you with what you were looking for. This Mercedes E55 now looks amazing.

For $1000, this looks good. I would be satisfied with this for that price. As I have said previously, if I wanted my automotive painted to showroom condition, Maaco is not where I would take it. I have personally never had an automotive that I desired to do that with.

Nowhere in the world will you get a down to the metal paint job for $1200.

If it sounds too good to be true…

finna be alot of lines

Why not use wrap instead

wasting all that time for some goofy as* sh*t feel bad if you got a lady lmaoooo 😂

Ain't even gone lie I thought you was putting ads all over your car for a sec lol😂

Amazing results

Lovely cars these SLKs: reliable, very quick off the mark and not expensive to run - brilliant cruising cars! Plus they look amazing with the outward McLaren SLR body lines, and the vario convertible roof is a brilliant 'Transformer' type gadget indeed. I have the same 2006 R171 model in black, for 4 years now as my daily driver with 85k on the clock. Best car I've owned, honestly - I'm smitten with it (then again, I'm easy to please and tend to be more of a cyclist - enjoying 2 wheels more than 4). BUT for a car, its a real head turner. I think along with the SLK 55AMG, the R171 SLK are the best looking of the SLK & SLC models made. Then, that's just my silly opinion.

It's not too bad but not worth that price.

Wet sand with 2000 then 3000 then 5000 and polish the shit out of it after

Needs to 1500 wet and buff.

It’s very cheap to repair a w163 the engine and trans is nice

You gotta wet sand that whole car (minus the hood) bro, wet sand , buff, and some good ‘Ol fashioned elbow grease!!!

Damn.. you ask for eggshell?

That's called orange peel. Painter and preps fault.

ah yes the famous Mako orange peel

This car was done At a Maaco Facility in Addison, Texas but i can tell by the Video but location is closed down for good now.

Asking a lot for 1000 or 1200 for some orange peal, Looks good. I know I will give them a chance for that Money, maybe the 2500 dollar upgrade.

You could get that looking perfect for a few hours of your time and some sandpaper.

I don’t know where you took your car , I have little 2013 Mercedes GLK 350 and Macco estimated $3,000 to paint it …
