Getting Here from St Kilda
From St Kilda the workshop at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham is about 26.1 km away, roughly 40 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.
Keeping It Detailed
The fastest way to waste a detail is a brush car wash on the way home. We hand over a simple routine: pH neutral shampoo, two buckets and a microfibre dry.
Water Spot Removal
Mineral rings from sprinklers and summer rain etch into paint and glass if they sit. Fresh spots wash off, older ones need a dedicated remover or a polish, and we tell you which before we start. Our washing dos and don’ts help stop them coming back.
Detailing a Car Near the Beach
Salt and sand get into door seals, carpets and wheel arches on cars that live near the beach. A detail clears both, and a coating afterwards makes the next clean easier.
Interior Detailing
Carpets and mats extracted, leather cleaned and fed, vents and switchgear brushed out. Sunscreen film on plastics and coffee in the console both come out, and the cabin leaves smelling of nothing. Why it is worth doing properly is covered in the benefits of a premium detail.
Clear Coat Is Finite
Every cut removes a little clear coat, and modern cars leave the factory with less of it than ever. That is why we measure the result as we go and never cut a whole panel hard to chase two scratches. Our guide to a good cut and polish explains why.
St Kilda Customers, One Workshop
Liquid R has one workshop, in Mitcham, and it is a fair drive from St Kilda. Customers make the trip because the work is done indoors by our own team rather than in a driveway, and we plan the booking so it takes one visit, not several. 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. From St Kilda, most people bundle work into one visit: tint with a detail, or film with a coating, so the car only makes the trip once. We confirm the timing when you book.
Detailing Is Not a Car Wash
A proper detail goes further than a wash. A wash removes what is loose. Detailing removes what has bonded: iron particles, tar, tree sap and water minerals baked on by summer. Only then can you see what the paint really looks like.

Took my car for PPF and ceramic coat. I was very pleased with the result when I picked up the car. On top of that, Jacky is very honest and friendly, highly recommended Liquid R to all car lovers and enthusiasts out there. I will be back with my other cars for sure.

I Had my car cut and polished by Liquid R and can’t recommend these guys highly enough! Jacky thoroughly inspected the car and explained to me what needed to happen and the job was done really well. He also went through the proper washing and maintenance process for my car. Bobby was also very helpful when I picked up the car. Thanks guys!

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…

Liquid R have a great reputation and to have my car done with them, they have more than lived up to that reputation easily. Class, thoughtful suggestions on best options to choose and flawless PPF implementation have me blown away at the finished product and I feel an added value to my car both in how much better it presents with their work and also feeling confident their PPF product and pro application will…

Jacky was very thorough in explaining how to care for the ceramic coat he applied on our new car. He takes the time to really explain and was available to answer further questions even after the transaction. Pricing is…

Booked our new car in for the ceramic coating and window tint package liquid r offers already knowing the quality and pricing is going to be much better than a car dealer. Jacky and his team have an absolutely ridiculous eye for detail and went above and beyond to make sure the car was looking as you’d expect being brand new.

Jacky and the Liquid R team did an amazing job putting on ceramic coating on my aurora white car. Cant imagine it can be more slick than a brand new paint. Pick up and handover was awesome as Jacky provide a detailed walkthrough on how to properly maintain the it. Will bring my other car soon.
Paul Dominguez
Jacky and the team came highly recommended. I was nervous because it's a brand new car (Kia Stinger) and I was being precious. After speaking to Jacky, I realised there was no way I could do ceramic coating with the dealership. It took around 6-8 weeks to get in. I went with package 3 which was tint, ceramic coat and interior but Jacky was able to adjust as I chose not to do the interior.

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.
Basic is a decontamination wash and interior clean, Deluxe adds machine polish and interior protection, and Premium adds multi-stage correction and protection.
Machine polishing starts from $850. Interior and maintenance details are quoted on the car, and correction is quoted after inspection.
