The Drive from South Yarra
The run from South Yarra to Cook Road in Mitcham is about 27.4 km via Eastern Freeway Onramp. Outside peak hour that is around 35 minutes, and you park on site when you arrive. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
PPF Refresh
For cars already wearing film: the film is washed with DFA Surface Cleaner from Defcon Films Australia, water spots are lifted, edges are checked and the film is resealed so it beads like the week it went on. Between visits, follow our aftercare routine.
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.
Everyday Wear, Fixed
Shopping trolleys, school runs and street parking leave fine scratches and grime that a wash never shifts. A detail takes the car back to a clean, glossy baseline.
Odour Treatment
Smoke, pets, gym gear and spilt milk leave smells that air freshener only covers. Full extraction and odour treatment remove the source, so the cabin smells of nothing. See classic car detailing for older interiors.
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.
Why Customers Come to Us
Liquid R has one workshop, in Mitcham, and South Yarra customers come to it. That is deliberate: car detailing work needs clean indoor bays and proper lighting that a mobile setup cannot match, and every job is done by our own team. More about who we are, and if you are comparing shops, our guide to the best car detailing in Melbourne lists what to check.
How Long the Car Stays
A maintenance detail is usually a day, and correction runs one to three days. For South Yarra customers we line up drop-off and pickup times when you book, so you know exactly which days the car is with us. We are open weekdays 8:30am to 5:00pm and Saturdays to 12:30pm.
Three Package Levels
Basic covers a decontamination wash and interior clean, the starting point of our car detailing packages. Deluxe adds machine polish and interior protection. Premium is multi-stage correction and protection inside and out. Inclusions are confirmed on your quote.

Jacky and the team at Liquid R did a fantastic job of ceramic coating and window tinting our 2024 Audi S5. We couldn't recommend them more!
Selwyn Marc
Fantastic service from Jacky, everything well explained. Great job on my brand new BMW with paint correction, tinting and ceramic coating.

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
5 stars not enough for these guys. 6 star service!!! Bobby and Jacky are a delight to deal with and share the same passion and attention to detail as car enthusiasts themselves. Great communication and customer care. The work, tinting, ceramic and PPF as well as detailing was spotless and the best work I’ve seen done. Recommended to all my friends. Competitive pricing. Thanks for sorting out my e63s!
Billy Omar
Jacky and his team have a great eye for detail and did a great job on our new car. He took the time to go over after care thoroughly to ensure I understood it well. He clearly takes pride in his work and I would highly recommend.
Jacinta Kong
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.

This is my third car I've done the TLC package for at Liquid R (paint correction & ceramic coating), and the guys managed to surprise me again!! The car is looking better than showroom condition. I can't endorse those guys enough, Jacky and Bobby are extremely professional and helpful, they are the best in this business from what I know. P.S.
Adel Baz
Jacky and team at Liquid R were extremely knowledgable, helpful and professional. Jacky was very accomodating with my appointment and rescheduled multiple times due to delays with the arrival of my new car. The PPF, ceramic coating and tinting was done well, and the ongoing support is also great (my million questions were all answered!). Highly recommended for any level of detailing required!

Some places allow you to pay for better, best and then perfect service. The default position here is only the best will do. Jacky and the rest of team are totally committed to the highest of standards on top of that their customer service is second to none. Hence why I was happy to do a 6 hour round trip, twice, to have them do PPF and ceramic. Don’t go anywhere else as there is no need. Simple amazing product…

No. Every price is the same wherever you live. The quote depends on the car and the work, never the postcode.
Every job is done at our Mitcham workshop. Film, coatings and tint need clean indoor bays and proper lighting, which a driveway cannot give, and that is what our results depend on.
A maintenance detail is usually a day. Correction work runs one to three days depending on the paint.
Yes. Correction is staged by machine under inspection lights, from $850, and quoted after we see the paint.
