- This really was an insane transformation of a vehicle in need of some Detailing love. The paint on this old Mercedes 190e was badly sun faded. Its crazy just how much a car can be improved in a short space of time. Loved filming this one, huge thanks to Freshlayers for letting me onsite to witness the step by step transformation.

Love when videos get straight to it , and none of the corny “CZcamsr” intro stuff . Liked and subbed
@@twinscoupe Yes, a direct, practical, professional and serious video is appreciated, without those childish introductions of some youtubers
How can I find this. I want my car to look like this
Yiuu

This isn't just detailing, it's the preservation of history. It takes an owner who really cares about what he has to go for something like this, and professionals who take their job seriously and have the skills to make it happen. To almost anyone else that could have been nothing more than a beat-up old car. But to these guys, it was a gem that deserved restoration. Great job all around.
Well said! I would not do this on just any car, but the some older vehicles just deserve such service.
Wow! I much prefer seeing something like this compared to a supercar I will never even see let alone own.
U r so right
U prob never owned a old Mercedes , when I say tank , those are heavy tanks will never let you down no matter what
Lol come to Egypt and we’ll see 70s model still work
Wow its so weird to see the change in cultures because here you see one ever 30m
You’re right. With that mind set you never will own one. You shouldn’t doubt your self.
“If everything is under control, you’re not fast enough”
“Perfection not possible, massive improvement, yes”
Love it
As the owner of a red GTI this is STILL my favorite detailing video....
These older benz were built like tanks from the Germans , unlike the newer ones......
Those cars were built to a standard. Now theyre built to a budget.. in short, Benz doesnt make money on second hand car sales, so it only matters that the car lasts the warranty
@@matteightytwo They do make money on used cars. As a matter of fact they make most of their sales money on CPOs. They push leasing when new because they get the car back after the lease and now they have the chance to either sell it as a CPO or wholesale it. Either way they make money twice on the car.
So true, now they go mad on complicated technology, that even their dealers don't understand sometimes.
james James yes that’s right. But even in the ‘80’s dealers didn’t know everything and cars were much simpler then. I bought a new Golf GTI in 1982 and it had a small computer called “MFA - Multi Functions Anzeige”. I read a lot of German car magazines then and it whas explained in “Auto, Motor und Sport”. I had to explain to the VW dealer how it worked. 😄
@@gromit3315 I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU ARE COMING FROM. I HAVE SEEN THE SAME WITH BMW. SIMILAR STORY TO YOURS, GERMANS ARE BECOMING TOO SMART FOR OUR OWN GOOD.
Old cars never die they just get neglected and then unloved this just proves a old car can lool just as good as a box fresh showroom roller
Love watching these kind of transformations on cars that really need some love. Just shows you what can be done.
That reaction from the owner says everything
A job very well done
I remember riding around in this in the 190E as a child , brings back so many memories.
Diesel or petrol ⛽ 🤔?!
It just seems the really faded red seems to show such a dramatic difference. I did a red car a few weeks ago and people thought it was repainted.
The customers' reaction is exactly what you should see every time, pure delight.
I cannot take anything away from the detailing specialists, fantastic job, but surly treatment to the quality of the paint used back in the day.
Well done all involved. True craftsmen.
Thanks for “ perfection” not possible...”improvement” is! Great job and video!
Holy shit looks like brand new car! That is insane man. A phenomenal job.
The perfection not possible" part, is so true. Many detailing videos don't mention the fact that sometimes, especially with old paint, while it will look massively better from afar, some things just can't be done. Thanks for showing this so openly in the video and great job on the paint
this 190 came with the legendary W124, built in parallel, quality was awesome, unlike its successor which fell apart because of corrosion...the whole car was in very good condition, only its paint got too much UV-light....excellent result finally, amazing what the right hands, tools and detergents can do....
You've done a wonderful job here. I think he was almost in tears of joy.
I have a 1992, 190E. 2.0 Auto.
I absolutely love it. I know it sounds like a dumb thing to say... But it's a very 'carry' looking car.
It's in such good condition. It's like stepping back in time. Needless to say I drive very carefully in it, and treaure it.
When you sit in the driver seat, you can't hold back smiling.
i know what you mean Sir!
I have a 1991, 190E 2.6 and i also love it .
I have a 2.6 manual it‘s such a great car

Makes meer driving, into happy motoring, Hey???😍🤩😍🤩🤩😍😍🤩😍
Same with my dads Rover P5B.
That’s an awesome detail. I’d be so stoked with the transformation. It’s ground breaking. Respect.
The mercedes 190 is a beautiful car and this one looks like it's brand new. Wow.
yeah how was it In such good shape with perfect lines and lights and stuff and left outside all those years... that's the most impressive aspect
Out there washing and doing decon in pouring down rain. That's commitment. Like a Rocky training montage, punching cold meat, flipping tires in the snow level badass.👍👌✌
Age is just a number. If you keep your ride in immaculate condition, it will always get attention.
This 32 year old car will make anyone proud.
Wow ! Looks amazing, just shows what can be done with the right equipment & correct methods. Stunning.
It moves me to tears, although it seems silly, this car, for me, has a very great emotional value, from a wonderful era that no longer exists, I want to congratulate you, you did a job, great..
That's way more satisfying than any wrap job could be.
Absolutely beautiful! I have seen brand new cars that had worse looking paint. I do believe that this also shows that a quality vehicle will hold up over time.
That's exactly what I just did to my 17 year old Suzuki Wagon R+. It was similarly pink a and dreadfully dull when I bought it. It took me three weekends working all day and now it's beautiful, shiny, red like blood and looks fantastic. Learnt everything on YT.
@Spud Chuffington jones now all I have is Before-During-After photos. Impressive though, today cleaned wheels off rust, black Matt resprayed, installed new bottom grill mesh and resprayed all surrounding space black. For some reason original design had something in mind with point lights but kind of abandoned the idea leaving plastic moulding only.
If knew how great it will turn out I would video every step. But I never expected so much can be done with it. In and out really, because when I first sat inside I was stuck to dirt, grime and dog hair :)
@Spud Chuffington jones that's a very good idea!
I wish to know how to DIY too.
@@sheidumukhtar9910 learn, try, watch YT and do it. No one is born with skills, gain them ✌
WOW..What a beautiful car. This is better than it was in the showroom years ago. Great job guys! CHEERS!
If you have that nice and clean shop you know you are at the right place for the right results!
I think they went to Stuttgart and had Mercedes tool up and make a brand new one!
That is beyond words! Lovely Jubbly.
Hello my friend send me WhatsApp number brother
Piekny warsztat. Widać, ludzie z pasją do motoryzacji. Życzę dalszego powodzenia.
Holy Moly that car looked stunning outside under natural light, the team excelled here.
Mercs of this era have a solid n planted feel so unique to them. Built to last. Was also light years ahead of competition when they first came out. What an era.
This is probably your best editing to date John... enjoyed the detail and the way it was presented too. Class! Didn't know Fresh Layers was so nice inside :)
You did a really good job. I think the customer is really satisfied. That's cool.
Stunning. Brilliant. The client was so pleased.
These guys are magicians, look at the quality of work, totally amazing.
Love the 190e or rather any old Mercedes. Fantastic job on this!
dude im crying now. Its wonderful
I cant believe the results. Amazing to watch
This was one of the best cars ever made on this planet! Fantastic work guys...
Beyond expectation. Great job !!!
I LOVE watching old faded paint come back to life! So satisfying to watch this work.
thanks mate for the positive vibes means a lot.
Always nice to see such as old car being looked after by their owners , respect 🙏
What an unreal job !! Those older mercedes look so good after a detail.
That looks brilliant
Probably the most solid model Mercedes ever built
Still think that'll be W123. I mean the reason W201 is so respected is because it stands on the shoulders of giants. Giant in this case would be the legendary W123. The first car made by MB for the world market.
One of the best detailing videos I’ve ever seen.
Please, please do more old Mercedes, esp from the 70s to 90s they are so overbuilt that they usually come back nicely from a good detailing.
Those Mercedes Never Dies!
Amazing transformation 🤩
The W201 is one of the best cars ever build. It's so magical to drive and look at. I mis my old 2.0D so much
Med 70 hk. kan den ikke være nået så langt væk, kan du ikke bare hente den?:-D
123 and 124 much better quality level then this 190 .... for sure 100%..
@@trumpameri1638 the W201 was the cheap version. A W140 is better quality than W124.
The W201 become the C klasse when the W202 come. The W124 becom a E klasse when it was replaced with the W210 and the W140 is a S class. So no wonder that the quality was a little higher. But the feeling ind a W201 and W124 is magic. It doesn't matter that they have there faults because the just makes feel better than the first time you had sex.
@@ketillundsrensen6167 i still remember what one taxi driver told me in 1994 ... 190 is worst car what Mercedes give me to drive .... but 123 and especially 124 was legendary model... 124 people still driving normally in 3rd country same like legendary Golf 2...
@@ketillundsrensen6167 BMW 2002 is also nice looking car for restauration.... it's very nice when u see today simple car what people make 40 years ago...
This brings tears of joy to me. Great job!
Hello my friend send me WhatsApp number brother
Wtf
Beautiful music. Beautiful vehicle. Beautiful work. Bravo
Oooh so thats what a brand new w201 looked back in the day. Great job and lovely color!
Great job on a lovely old car well done chaps
Gorgeous design! And the plastic wheel covers makes it timeless! Such an elegant machine!
Plastic? Don't think so......
@@manoszervos976 Yes its plastic. The shape makes the wheel more ''aerodynamic''
Wow, awsome work guys. The 190 is ready for the next 32 years! And always lovely to see, that young people drive W201 Babybenz. It's a car for every age.... It connects generations.
Really great Transformation of a 32 Year old Mercedes, Great Work you and your entire team.
If we could bring a shine to all surviving 90’s cars in the streets... that would be awesome 👏
And even older...I've got a 89 yoda pickup with 62k miles... working on giving it the love it needs now...
Trey Callahan of course you are more than welcome to join the club! You and all your 80’s friends too ✌️
Loved this video. Giving a good old W201 190 some much needed yet well deserved love. + You guys love what you do. I see that!
wow thats a reallly NICE car ! im very suprised to see it looked NEW with the body NOT having any dents , dings or deep scratches! great job cleaning up that car !
Great transformation. Amazed by the amount of views. Keep up the good work my friend
You, Sirs, are craftsmen! Well done!
Like Al Pacino used to say: "The gloss is yours!"
Astonishingly great work. "Unbelievable" is an understatement!
I'm lost for words. That's insane!!
I'm finishing up my very first paid detailing job today, and this is excellent inspiration as I hit the exterior potion of the job. Thanks, my friend! Beautiful video!
Keeping pushing my friend. Best success going forward!
Holy smoke! Well done guys! 💪
Nice to watch masters of a trade at work.
They're not cleaning a car they're preserving automative history.
Stunning job.
I had the very same look on my Corrado G60 from 1991 when I bought it. Totally matte and grey, sometimes even pinkish. Handpolished it with a variety of autoglym for 26 hours, all by hand, and brought back life into the red paint again. Looks nice, even it's been 9 years since I did that. I only use wax. never ceramics, graphene or other types. This demands regular attention to the car, and the couple here in this video looked happy about the result, although they would probably not maintain it weekly, so then this treatment is meaningfull. Job well done.
Cheers.
Amazing transformation. Wish they built todays Mercedes as well as these 190's
140k subscribers and the actual views you should be getting, very well done fella, fantastic job as per usual and the lads too, hats off to them 👍
honestly guys like yourself are the reason I do this. thank you for the kind positive words.
Nothing but respect for you guys🙌🏾
Started my apprenticeship on 190E’ s & 124’s 123’s 126’s they were definitely built better in those days & had that plush ride unlike the stiff suspension of modern vehicles.
The signal red paint or was it guards was always a problem even when just a few years old with blooming as I think they called it.
Fantastic restoration job of the paint work guys great to see a W201 chassis still on the road.
If I had one criticism it would be the plastics ( wing mirrors & bumpers ) were never that glossy from the factory but amazing job definitely would recommend using you guys
That's the nice thing with single stage paints, they clean up fantastic! It kills the pads though. Good choice on the coating. Great video man.
Yes indeed; my 95 E36 is lacquered and it’s frustrating not to be able to get to the paint underneath. No matter what I do I’m always working the clear coat and cannot stop the fade (it’s red !)
“ Très charmant”
Amazing !
This is EPIC! Great contrast shots!
Unbelievable. Looks brand new! You folks give me hope that I can restore the kickass paint job on my 1975 GMC Motorhome.
I just love an old Mercedes and that one looked amazing. Brilliant video.
I'm so bringing my car to you 😂 that was beautiful 👌
The music is sick. The procedure is tight. The preperation is imaculate. And the technique is flawless. Great work and production!
Just pure awesome work there!
Epic job, love that garage set up also looks the dogs doo da's
Looks stunning, look at the paint job on the old Mercedes-Benz vehicles: rust free high quality
This car was owned by someone who treated it like a baby... it was in perfect condition, no dents or scratches, anything... Like new... but these cars can rust like any other... I don't think its paintjob is better than oem paintworks on present's models
same can't be said for mercedes sprinter vans
Javier Ruiz Homedes paint on older Benz’s used different solvents that are banned and not allowed to be used these days. Today all cars are cheap shite. A total scam to keep you paying for nothing & to keep complete track of you with your phone being paired into the car. You can’t work on new cars as some use proprietary tools, you need a license to work on them & to use the OS it can cost up to £25,000 to use. Old cars were better made too.
@@redlineracing4947 I'm 40 and I've fixing modern cars by myself since I have drvn license. You only need some basic tools and a obd2 scan. If you feel better thinking old cars were better, even better made, good for you... But that's not true sir... Any actual car with proper maintanance is able to do over million miles...you cannot say the same on the most cars of 30 years ago or more (not in case of some brands like the one in the video (
Javier Ruiz Homedes speaking with relativity. Old Hondas, Mercedes, BMW’s, Volvos etc. & newer cars are so much harder to work on than older ones. The “innovation” inside of the industry is anything but. The eco boost engine is a joke aswell.
Nice job. Congratulations!
Mercedes (and all German makers) used superb paint back then. Had several red Opels, 911s, VWs and Mercs come up in a similar way. Great job!
So satisfying :)) credit to merc there... to get that finish on todays water based paints be difficult, the old school lacquer and oil based paints so durable
Wow the crap that came off the window rubber. Wish I lived near these guys.
Absolutely amazing beautiful job, car and color!
The headlights really came out well, this dude isn't even gonna wanna drive it now cause its perfect
Kudos to entire team..
So satisfying videos..
Love from India..

6:04 don’t know why I thought of this but that little spot in the middle looks 100% like Vermont
Absolutely brilliant, the car looked amazing considering how bad it was at the beginning. Could watch content like this all day
The architect of detailing. Job well done champs 👍❤
Absolute perfection isn’t needed for a car to look amazing,
I’d be over the moon if that was mine
Charlie I've been saying that for years... Perfection is lovely if you've a trailer queen show car that never sees the road but for your everyday car or even a weekend special I'd say this is as good as you need
Peter Smith exactly that mate
damn, washing a car in yeezys, that's a flex. Nice job on the cinematography. Great job on the detail.
Amazing work and transformation 👏 🙌
If I hadn't wached this I wouldn't have believed it
It's the most fantastic job I have ever seen
It brilliant 👍
The paint quality on “old” cars are much better then the ones are on streets today.
"Would call 'em friends knowing the real story behind 1984?!" 🗨😑📅✂️🏺
Title says it all!! Amazing! What amazing work!
