I'm going to wash it in the morning and I'll take some pics. It looks like mostly carwash scratching and fading in general, it is all over the car, just dull. There might be a few spots of clearcoat (I'm pretty sure it has clearcoat) that look like they might fail before long but otherwise no failures.

Can you send me some pictures of the finish?  The worst parts?  I ask because a 
lot of the process is determined by how bad the paint condition is…

No matter what, go out and get yourself a clay bar at FLAPS.  It will probably 
be bundled with a bottle of “clay bar lubricant” which is nothing more than 
filtered water with a few drops of dish soap in it to act as a surfactant. When 
you use it up just refill it with a bottle of water and a couple of drops of 
Joy or whatever dish soap you’ve got in the cabinet.

The paint on this new green E320 is a bit faded so I was thinking this weekend 
to go at it with the Poos methods if he could relate the proper procedures to 
revitalize the shine and get this Benz looking new again.

I seem to recall it involves clay bars and buffing using various products in 
particular stages.

Tutorial please!
