Ceramic Coating Port Melbourne
Ceramic Coating for Port Melbourne Drivers
Liquid R serves Port Melbourne and the rest of inner Melbourne from one workshop in Mitcham, about 30.7 km away and roughly 45 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.
Customers from Port Melbourne pay the same as everyone else, because the price follows the car and the work. Call 1800 985 880 or text 0483 930 888 to book.

Port Melbourne to Mitcham
Allow roughly 45 minutes from Port Melbourne outside peak hour. The route is about 30.7 km via CityLink and Burwood Highway, ending at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham, where there is parking out the front. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
How Long It Lasts
A professionally applied coating protects for two to five years in normal Melbourne use, and well maintained cars have stretched ours toward nine. The wash routine makes most of the difference, and our list of mistakes to avoid after a coating covers the rest.
What a Coating Does Not Do
A coating is microns thick. It will not stop a stone chip and it will not fill existing scratches. Chips need paint protection film, and scratches need correction before the coating locks them in.
Salt Rinses Off
Near the water in Port Melbourne, salt residue builds up on paint between washes. A ceramic coating gives it nothing to grip, so a rinse does most of the work.
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.
Why Customers Come to Us
Liquid R has one workshop, in Mitcham, and it is a fair drive from Port Melbourne. 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 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. From Port Melbourne, 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.
New Car Packages from $1090
Pack Essential, $1090, uses Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light. Pack 1, $1390, steps up to Envoke ProCoat+ 7 Year Graphene Coating, and the higher packs add interior protection, wheel coating, tint and front end film. All five are on the packages page.

John Lim
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 did a fantastic job on my Golf VW GTI with PPF and Ceramic Coating. The King's Red on the car popped out, with a smooth and slick to the touch! Professional and flexible to your needs without trying to put their opinion on you in an attempt to overwrite you as if your needs are stupid. Competitive pricing as well! Highly recommend these guys. Note: Better book in quick!

John Robertson
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.
Patricia chan
I have nothing but great things to say about Jacky and the team at Liquid R. I first contacted Jacky after ordering my new car 15 months ago and he gave me quotes etc for the full front end wrap, ceramic coating, interior coat and window tinting (package 4). Due to uncertainty over how long the new car would take to deliver, we kept in communication over the year, knowing he was booked out 2 months in advance.
Martin Kranz
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!

The workshop at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham is about 30.7 km from Port Melbourne, roughly 45 minutes by car outside peak hour.
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.
If you keep the car more than a couple of years, usually yes. It replaces the wax cycle and keeps the paint from dulling.
Yes. Older paint is decontaminated and corrected first, then coated, and often shows the biggest change.
