    I thought it was my problem i did that car started after 15 min playing with the key to start before this video, i did what you did on and it magically started I was exited but next day again couldn’t start my car and this didn’t work anymore. 1 h tried different things , fuses etc nothing worked than i hit my key several times and car started.. I think its either bad key or starter relay. So am going to buy $20 relay before $350 key first .

    I had the same problem with my 320slk. Cheapest interior of any car I have owned. I still find it staggering how Mercedes could use plastic for entire dashboard. Why could they not have used metal like the older pagoda top. In Australia my 320slk cost $120,000 in 2001. I loved this car but it broke me financially. I sold it with only 130,000kms on the speedo.

      Hi! i’m searching for some help i am in the process of stripping my interior paint previously from being tan to just leaving it black, but im having a hard time getting rid of this white stuff that’s left over after the stripper has been wiped off, could you give me any tips, or your steps and products you used? thank!

    • @antdavisonNZ
      @antdavisonNZ Рік тому

      @@carleycox6791 I just left my Benz interior plastics in the laundry tub, filled with water and detergent overnight and it peeled off in sheets, so not sure what the white stuff is, but maybe remove with a mild solvent like methylated spirits or isopropyl alchohol. You might find the raw plastics a bit barren. You could recolour with automotive-vinyl dye that comes in a aerosol can. "Buckskin" is possibly the colour you want, or perhaps a satin black. I use vinyl dye to re-colour lots of plastics, and is the only thing that will recolour hard to paint plastics like PVC, but the benz interior is ABS, so the dye will work well. Buy 6 or so cans and make sure it is meticulously clean before spraying the dye - use a 'leopard spotting' technique applying successive thin coats every five minutes to build up the colour. The main solvent in vinyl dye is MEK (MethylEthylKetone) which is nasty and very powerful .. essentially it melts the top surface of the plastic to trap the colour pigment and once dried is very hard to scratch off. Needs to be applied on a not-cold day, eg above 15degC in a well ventilated area
