Ceramic Coating Blackburn
Ceramic Coating Blackburn: Done in Mitcham
Blackburn drivers come to Liquid R in Mitcham for ceramic coating. The workshop is about 5.3 km from Blackburn, roughly 10 minutes by car outside peak hour. Ceramic coating starts at $980 on bare paint, including decontamination and machine polish, and new car packages start at $1090.
Preparation is most of the job: a foam pre-wash, iron and tar removal, clay and machine polishing under inspection lights before the coating goes on. We use Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light and Envoke ProCoat+ 7 Year Graphene Coating, cured indoors.
Every quote is a fixed figure before the car is booked, and it is the same whichever suburb you come from. Call 1800 985 880 or text 0483 930 888 to book.

The Drive from Blackburn
The run from Blackburn to Cook Road in Mitcham is about 5.3 km via Whitehorse Road. Outside peak hour that is around 10 minutes, and you park on site when you arrive. Blackburn is on the same train line as us: Mitcham and Heatherdale stations are each about 1.5 km from the workshop, so leaving the car and taking the train home works. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
Washing a Coated Car
pH neutral shampoo, a rinse before contact, no brush car washes, and a clean towel or blower to dry, as set out in our guide to washing a coated car. Done that way the coating keeps beading and nothing gritty gets dragged across the paint.
Coating Over PPF
A ceramic layer can go over paint protection film in the same booking for $650. The film takes the stone chips and the coating keeps it easy to wash.
Trees, Birds and Parking Outside
Cars parked on the street or under trees collect sap and bird droppings that etch bare paint in the sun. A coated surface buys time and releases them with a gentle wash.
Wheel Ceramic at $60 a Wheel
Brake dust bakes onto bare alloys and pits the finish. A wheel ceramic, $60 per wheel, handles the heat and lets the dust rinse off before it bonds.
Why Customers Come to Us
Blackburn is close enough that a separate branch would make no sense. All ceramic coating work happens in Mitcham, in ten indoor bays, done by the same people who quote it. More about who we are, and if you are comparing shops, our guide to the best ceramic coating in Melbourne lists what to check.
Preparation Decides the Result
Foam pre-wash, two bucket contact wash, iron and tar removal, clay, then machine polishing under inspection lights. Skip any step and you seal dirt and swirls under glass. This preparation, the same work as a cut and polish, is most of the labour and most of the price.

Third visit to Jacky and LiquidR and another fabulous job. Second time ceramic coat and detailing on the Tbird and also had a VW Touareg front PPF 2 years ago. The detailing and ceramic coat finish is outstanding.
Sean Coleman
Jackie and the team at liquid R have installed Bushwraps on 2 of my Hiluxs now and they have both been perfect, the most recent one also had custom work done. The vehicle came straight from the dealer and we spent the time to work out exactly what I was after, the work was completed then the vehicle went to ARB.
Alex Gramatakos
Very professional. Great job. Thanks
Robin Stephens
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
Spoke to Jacky and he has been incredible, really knowledgeable and will explain everything in detail. Very pleasant guy to talk to as well. Left my BMW X2 for ceramic coating and the job done by his team was amazing. He also does a proper handover by explaining how to wash the car and to maintain the shine. Thank Jacky and team.

The team at liquid R did a great job on my kia carnival inside and out looked awesome after the ceramic coating, easy to clean
Mijo L
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
Thanks Jacky & Sean, so happy with way my car looks! Awesome job guys, you both know your stuff!
Rob Saro
Jacky and the guys did an great job color correcting and applying ceramic to my 2015 Calais. Awesome job and easy to deal with. When comparing the coating to our other car (which we were also impressed with at the time) its like chalk and cheese. The water just beads and sheets off with a blower and doesn't require any hand drying. It's amazing stuff!

No. Every price is the same wherever you live. The quote depends on the car and the work, never the postcode.
Yes. Older paint is decontaminated and corrected first, then coated, and often shows the biggest change.
Both protect the clear coat. Graphene is slicker and spots less on hot panels, which suits cars parked outside.
