Detailing a 55 Year Old Mercedes W108 - Exterior & Interior

This dirty 1967 Mercedes W108 gets it first detail in 10 years! In last week's video, the car received a thorough exterior wash and today I'm going to get to work on polishing the paint. I'm also going to give the interior a well-deserved deep clean to get rid of all the mold and grime. Hope you enjoy!

Car manufacturers don't build to last any longer, they build with a failure date and this includes Mercedes. This 55 year old Mercedes in many ways is better than anything being built in the last 30 years with a few exceptions.

[@saynotothegreatreset]

Simply mechanics and build like a tank

[@Racedoc]

No doubt. They don’t have to design a part that fails after certain mileage all they need to do is to program the HCU that runs the car.

[@coleorick6898]

Man! I love how calmly you detail cars. Seems like there’s no deadline or need to rush. It’s relaxing to watch and the results are just wow!

[@alanblanes2876]

It is a Zen experience to see such methodical detailing!

[@geofffikar3417]

Wonderful to see one of them brought back. It's a shame Mercedes chooses not to build them with that quality any longer. Well done!

[@FloridaClay]

Still a beautiful vehicle IMHO and good to see one that has not been eater up by rust as so many have been. Nice work.

[@joeyoungs8426]

Funny, I was never a fan of that style but now find I appreciate it far more. That color is killer on it.

[@ravisriram6746]

A real beauty. These older Mercedes' are definitely worth saving.

[@sudiptakiran]

I can only say wow!! A 55 year old car in such a pristine condition!! Amazing!!

[@sandyvalentin3072]

I really enjoy your work ethic no talking just right to the point , your car detailing skills are magnificent . There are only 2 detailing KZbin channels I subscribe to yours and I AM DETAILING out of California.

[@euc131]

Hard to imagine any other car 55 year old car where the trim has lasted so well. You have done a great job - thanks for sharing.

[@jaaphoogendijk671]

Wow the fact that the difference was seeable on silver/grey without sun or artificial lighting goes to show the difference! Great job

[@OJxiii]

Mercedes build quality can surely withstand all manner of natural elements. This is a testimony to that... A 55yr old car in pristine condition!

[@P4SDetails]

Finding something as awesome of as this to detail had to have put a smile on your face.

[@baginatora]

What a beauty! I love the hidden air intakes on each side of the grill. So elegant!

[@ems324]

WOW absolutely AMAZING !!!! I can't say it enough, but You are hands down the BEST DETAILER on KZbin. That Mercedes looks incredible like it just rolled off the assembly line, but better. Mercedes needs to see the amazing work you do. I guarantee they'd speechless. Excellent work my friend.

[@ruandebeer5496]

Hey bud...hope you good...i have to say...when you busy with modern day cars and newer generations your work is always impecable....but...when it comes to older cars and older generation classics its like the true artist in you comes out...i salute for that and the work you doing, your videos and passion for detailing inspires me beyond my limits and made me use and love the products you are using, its the only products in my detailing arsenal...keep it up buddy.

[@CAPTJ696]

Great! Right on time. Awesome job Vermijl. Filming aspect here is amazing. Again great talent all around buddy!

[@christricks]

Yes back at it again: First Detail singe 55 Years. Yeah, i can clean a car!! Sensationell

[@keanepillay9928]

I really do have passion for this work.....beautiful stuff,it really does feel great and satisfying when you see a vehicle leave a million times better than it came. Keep your head up king. 👑

[@tonyglass1740]

Beautiful! The paint correction brought out the clarity in the finish. Well done!

[@ThePosiamus]

As an Benz owner myself, I just enjoy the make over of this elegant lady.

[@adambatko4773]

Top notch work as always. You are an absolute master at your work sir.

[@dhirenbdave]

This was so calming to watch - great work and the car now looks stunning!

[@dannydaugherty5702]

This is my favorite way to spend my Sunday’s afternoon! Love these style of videos 👏

[@Imohammadabdullahniazi_]

What a class this 55 years old Merci had ❤️

[@hawkertyphoon4537]

You gave that old Lady a first class love Massage. Keep up the good work!

[@marshprofessionaldetailing9794]

[@johann752]

hello,wow you did a realy great work to get this beautiful old Mercedes clean and shinning again,outside like inside, realy awesome,i enjoyed to see it, thanks 😯👍💪👏

[@Visionery1]

The good part about buying a new car is always cleaning it, and then polishing it to one's standard.

[@bradhampton6457]

Back when that Mercedes was built they were quality cars. I remember one of the Drs in our community bought a 68 240D brand new for his wife. Beautiful craftsmanship. Nowadays with all the electronics they’re a nightmare.

[@ElTinPereira]

Que auto!! Ese interior y las líneas de la carrocería!! De la época en que no se medían los costos. El auténtico "the best or nothing"

[@Chrissi966GE]

What a beautiful car!

[@niklashaugeneset4318]

On older cars like these, do you ever measure the paint? Sometimes there could be very little paint left and a softer polish could be a better option. Just curious.

[@jeffreyrobert9460]

Most cars of this age have single stage paint ie no clear coat. A detailer has to be very careful with paint like this

[@robertsadler6160]

Ex

[@joemcnamara4774]

@Amjad Ali not mecessarily, mercedes had top quality thick paint that if looked after could easily look this good at this age

[@theradicaldetail4586]

Hehe

[@svju8336]

Echt krass, klasse Video!💙

[@slimsampy4764]

I love your work!!!

[@DECENTMANSHORTS]

Really a classic car 👌👌👍👍👌👌

[@dermottelliot9634]

Beautiful!

[@davyvols4971]

prachtig echt top deze video 👍 ik zat al te kijken hoe de wagen getransformeerd werd tijdens het polijsten maar toen je de deurpanelen en zetels tot zijn recht kreeg was echt wauw😲👍 knap werk man 👌👍

[@ryanazevedo2237]

Great work on the classic Benz. Idk but you should polish the glass as well.

[@Toph1975]

Magnifique ! Congratulation !! 😊

[@MH-fb5kr]

What a beauty!

[@Fomich74]

Классная машина! Не менее классная работа! Отличный результат ✊🏻

[@Jasona1976]

Beautiful car and man!!

[@volkerschulze3429]

Perfect cleaning.

[@SASHAMJR]

Отличная работа! Классический Мерседес это мечта!

[@jamesnardini]

Car as art. Stunning. ❤❤

Great job! I do hate that old loop pile carpeting!

[@jzvtec9]

[@danielbachiller6819]

Good job my friend 👍🥇

[@PeterRoos]

Awesome!

[@davidb6183]

Потрясная машина и отличная работа🎉

[@Tsunamayo3]

Great job！

[@kadirkardes9257]

Good thanks 🖤

[@DrazDetailing]

Oufti! Sympa ce résultat. En plus ces vieux vernis ne sont pas si évident que ça a travailler. 👌

[@babis10]

Wie alle deine Videos super geil 💪Danke

[@ddautodetailing]

Very nice!

[@gabsfearcruzer]

finally interior satisfaction ..tyu

[@AndronicDetailing]

Amazing video as always, you made it to look like brand new ! Bet it was time consuming to polish all those curved surfaces 😄

[@orbiterL]

Very handsome. The car also! 😉

[@moonwashclub]

Fantastic as always! Why there was no CarPro IronX on the paintwork?

[@raoulheinrichvonmerten4851]

Hey you forgot the carpet and head liner! If there is mould on the vinyl there is mould right through the leather seats and carpets. You should know that you can remove the carpet panels ( except for the front seats) . And you will find a lot of unhealthy stuff under there.

[@brenoocs]

Best detailing footage on youtube. Really great to see your videos.

[@guillefrancisco6811]

Saludos desde rosario argentina ❤️❤️♥️

[@erniearambula3525]

Vintage German and Italian cars are thee most Beautiful 👍

very nice brother

[@murasaki.sensha]

fantastic！！

[@adammelhem9783]

very good job

[@adammelhem9783]

I don't have telegram just what's app

[@7.5R]

Dear Verjmijl, What is the correct dilution ratio to use vorreiniger as a pre treatment like this? Thank you!

[@frankseipel5150]

You spend these Car so much love ...its a German Car

[@obieWanmotivation]

This old school 1977 Benz is built like a tank. MB doesn’t make them as this sturdy anymore. ❤

[@stefanmaanders3266]

1967 😉😊 But still you are right. Cars like these aren't made anymore!

[@QaviQ]

Hi nice video share 👍 do mention the liquid name that you applied for cleaning thanks

[@shaquillesayers9735]

Geez this is amazing. How long does a detail exterior and interior take?

[@masonbarlow5177]

Hi whsts the name of the Little foam thing you used for interior onto the scrub pad

[@benrios9643]

Hi what is the name or brand of the air freshener you spray in the cars that looks like a cologne bottle?

[@Racedoc]

I will take this over any Mercedes that is made today.

[@Oakcitymedia]

Can you show step by step and demonstrate it. Great video

[@jamesproudlove1527]

How much do charge per hour to do this work? How long do you take to complete this both inside & outside the car?

[@roberttoth5158]

Hi! Wunderschön Arbeit 🤩👑👍. welches Produkt des Herstellers der Schwamm ist, mit dem Sie die Sitze und Türen reinigen?? Das ist auch mein Job, ich lebe in Bayern🙋‍♂️🍀

[@denismamontov4862]

Да она уже была в идеале!!!!

[@niharinea8196]

Great Respekt

[@wederweder316]

The car had beautiful paint right after it was washed.

[@Fernandwinnie]

That Merc looked in perfect condition. Better washed without all these chemicals….hot, soapy water, dry and Polish.

[@arpendanakomang1143]

What is the function of the plaster, why should it be limited? Later it will also be polished.
