Ceramic Coating Docklands
Ceramic Coating near Docklands
Docklands drivers come to Liquid R in Mitcham for ceramic coating. The workshop is about 29 km from Docklands, roughly 40 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.
A coating keeps paint glossy and easy to wash for two to five years in normal Melbourne use. It will not stop stone chips, so plenty of owners pair it with film on the front, which we can fit in the same booking.
Prices are the same wherever you live: the quote depends on the car, not the postcode. Call 1800 985 880 or text 0483 930 888 to book.

New Car Packages from $1090

Ceramic Coating from $980
On bare paint, ceramic coating starts at $980. That price includes the part of the job that decides the result: decontamination, iron and tar removal, clay and a single stage machine polish before the coating goes on.
Road Grime From the Commute
Freeway driving on roads like Eastern Freeway coats a car in road film, bugs and brake dust. A ceramic coating lets most of it rinse off, so the car stays clean longer between washes.
Water Spots and Bore Water
Sprinklers and bore water leave mineral rings that etch bare paint in the sun. Graphene chemistry in particular resists those spots, and a coated panel releases them with a normal wash.
Leather and Fabric Coating
Gtechniq L1 on leather and I1 on fabric slow how fast spills soak in, so coffee and sunscreen wipe away instead of staining. Popular on light interiors and family cars.
Why Customers Come to Us
We have no branch out near Docklands, only our Mitcham workshop. If the drive suits you, the work is done indoors by staff who do this every day, and the booking is planned around a single trip. More about who we are, and if you are comparing shops, our guide to the best ceramic coating in Melbourne lists what to check.
How Long the Car Stays
Coatings need curing time, so most cars stay with us for a couple of days. Because of the distance, we plan the work so the car needs one drop-off and one pickup, even when several jobs are booked together. We confirm the timing when you book.

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.

AJ Liska
Brought in my Tesla on a Friday and got in back the very next Friday for a full body PPF + graphene coating on top. To start with, this timeframe is impressive given the job they have done. On top, from start to finish, I received excellent communication and professionalism along the way, and of course, a flawless job done on the vehicle. It's hard to write any negatives, my car came out looking twice as good as…

Jacky is the most patient, honest and passionate professional. He was so willing to share his expertise – even when I didn’t appear to be anything other than a researcher! He was far from where I live but I chose him because he gave me quality for a competitive price right from the outset and he did not try and deter me from going to my local company.

I initially would like to bring my new car to a well known local auto TLC shop 800 meters away who also does ceramic coating & tinted windows (I live in Clayton where plenty of auto shops around); their prices are much higher for the same services compared to LiquidR and my friend convinced me to take my new car to LiquidR instead; albeit the distance. The decision is worth it.

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.
Yes. Older paint is decontaminated and corrected first, then coated, and often shows the biggest change.
If you keep the car more than a couple of years, usually yes. It replaces the wax cycle and keeps the paint from dulling.
