The Drive from Malvern
From Malvern the workshop at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham is about 19.9 km away, roughly 30 minutes via Burwood Highway outside peak hour. There is parking on site and a bay booked for your arrival. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
Seal the Work After Correction
Freshly corrected paint is bare. A ceramic coating, from $980 including single stage correction, locks in the finish. Correcting without sealing means paying for the same result twice.
Indoors, Under Proper Lights
Every detail is done in our indoor bays, lit for inspection so defects are visible while we work. Polishing outdoors in bright sun hides swirls that show up later. More on what a proper detail changes.
Commuter Car Grime
Daily runs on Burwood Highway leave iron particles and brake dust bonded to the paint and wheels. A proper detail removes them before they etch, and a coating afterwards slows the build-up.
Exterior Detailing
Full decontamination, then staged machine correction, what most Australians call a cut and polish, to cut back swirl marks, light scratches and oxidation before polishing to a deep gloss. It changes how the paint reads in daylight.
How Long a Detail Takes
A maintenance detail is usually a day. Correction runs one to three days depending on the paint. We would rather keep the car an extra morning than hand back a rushed panel. Show cars get more time again, see prestige car detailing.
One Workshop, in Mitcham
We are not a mobile service and we do not have a Malvern shopfront. The work is done in Mitcham because car detailing needs dust-free bays, inspection lighting and time, all of which a driveway lacks. More about who we are, and if you are comparing shops, our guide to the best car detailing in Melbourne lists what to check.
Booking and Turnaround
A maintenance detail is usually a day, and correction runs one to three days. Tell us when you can drop off and collect, and we schedule the job around those times. We are open weekdays 8:30am to 5:00pm and Saturdays to 12:30pm.
Swirls, Water Spots and Sun Damage
Melbourne paint collects wash swirls from brush car washes, mineral rings from sprinklers, oxidised patches from years of UV and fine car park door marks. Each has its own fix, and most look worse than they are. Dark paint shows them most, as our article on protecting dark cars explains.

Customer Reviews
Real reviews from Liquid R customers, verified and published by hand.
Rated 5 out of 5 from 89 verified customer reviews.
Jacky and the team showed meticulous care and incredible attention to detail when installing a ceramic coating on my new RS3. The car came out far better than when it left the show-room floor and far surpassed my expectations. The handwashing tutorial that Jacky ran me through upon collection was also a great knowledge transfer & showed true dedication to their craft. 11/10, can't recommend enough.

Having just bought a brand new Tesla Model 3, I booked it in with Liquid R and after discussing with Jacky elected for a Ceramic Coating and window Tint. Jacky was very helpful and obliging. He also agreed to fit some new mud flaps i ordered for the car. I took delivery of my new car and drove it straight to Liquid R. 2 days later i picked up the car and am extremely happy with the result. Bobby was very helpful too…
Richard Guthrie
I had a ceramic coating and a paint protection film (PPF) package applied by Liquid R, with Jacky and Bob overseeing the process. I am very pleased with the results. After I dropped off my car at Liquid R one night, I noticed through the My Toyota App that my 2025 Toyota LC 300 was parked in a different location.

Jacky and the team have been super helpful with my cars. I got our Land Cruiser bush wrapped/clear wrapped here a year ago plus tinted windows. Amazing job and Jacky/Bobby helped me understand my window tinting choices. I’m a car sprayer by trade so appreciate the attention to detail in all there work. On that note the work shop is bright and immaculate. 100% recommended and great pricing.
Paul Ross
Jacky and team were amazing. From the moment we first walked in the door to make our initial inquiries to the day we dropped off to the day we picked up nothing was too much trouble. Jacky was extremely passionate and knowledgeable and so easy to deal with. The team were very particular in their work. Then there is the final product. An absolutely amazing result.

Outstanding Service and Quality – Highly Recommend Liquid R! I had XPEL tint installed at Liquid R, and the experience was exceptional. Jacky and his team provided top-quality workmanship, brilliant communication, and world-class customer service. From start to finish, they kept me informed, explained my options clearly, and ensured a flawless installation. The tint looks incredible, and their attention to detail…

Professional advice and reasonable price. Most important is that they work with hearts. I have my 5 years old Toyota Corolla “fixed “ by them. Now I got a brand new car. Highly recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I picked up my 2nd car from Liquid-R yesterday. Another stunning work.

Rob Saro
Hey there! So, you've been eyeing up that ceramic-coated shine for your ride, right? Well, let me tell you about my experience at Liquid R. It took a bit of patience to snag a spot – a couple of months, to be exact – but boy, was it worth the wait! At first, I admit, I had my doubts. But as soon as I saw the finished job, any hesitation melted away like snow in the Aussie sun.

Jackie was super helpful from the very start. He was able to work his availability around my shift work roster. Perfect communication about products and price and fully transparent, no secret costs or upselling. Jackie obviously takes pride in his workmanship and it shows. Would recommend his services to anyone. For reference I had package 3 applied to a new vehicle and it looks better than the day I took delivery…
