1977 to 1985 Mercedes 300D Side Trim Removed for Cleaning and Polishing

[@krislomrub008]

Have to give you a huge compliment Kent - thanks for all this info you are sharing for free. Watching almost all episodes and especially the series you made with your son was really cool.

Kent, another wonderful video…Thank you! What I like with your videos is that you anticipate the possible hangups and show the little things that make the jobs end up looking perfect!

So nice of you

[@Andrew-zv4fm]

A wealth of knowledge.

Hard to believe that it’s original paint it comes up so well, looks fantastic.

[@jimh3362]

Kent, I could not agree more. Original Mercedes and much older beetles have great original paint. They usually buff out very well but like so many things, preparation is the key. Remove trim, clean, then buff. Thank you!

Your work is impressive, you are truly a master, i appreciate you sharing

[@Mercedessource]

Thank you very much!

Wow what a difference mercedes source makes to a w123 MBNZ ron

[@sugarmaplelodge3915]

Just bought the kit and paint, thanks!

[@ruioliveira9845]

I hope you do a video about w123 earlier versions of cruise control

[@jasonlee-os1qi]

Yeah Spence!

Would have loved to have seen how to remove the door handles, and rear nomenclature trim.

[@dinispaulino7512]

Very nice result. I wonder if the W123 was one of the last MB models with single stage paint. I might be mistaken, but I think the W124 already had clearcoat from the factory.

Thanks for making great videos

What a beauty😅

[@domino-ve6ei]

Very nice ❤

Great job what wax did you use?

[@Mercedessource]

I did not use a wax. This was done with a polishing compound. I will show more in a future video.

[@JuanLopez-oz9kh]

Have you done a video on the w114-115 loose trans shifter that will not hold in parking?

[@Mercedessource]

This is usually the reason why. I have done lots of videos. This link will explain more. mercedessource.com/store/automatic-transmission-shift-rod-bushing-replacement-tool-kit-new-bushings-included

[@vintage76vipergreenBeetle]

👍

[@douglasdwight1]

Is power buffing wet sanding, or compounding?

[@RachelLucero-ck9ye]

Kent is COOL
