PPF Bayswater
PPF for Bayswater Drivers
Liquid R serves Bayswater and the rest of Melbourne’s east from one workshop in Mitcham, about 9.8 km away and roughly 15 minutes by car outside peak hour. PPF, the clear film that stops stone chips, starts at $180 for headlights and runs to $5980 for every painted panel, with a full front from $1980.
Every PPF job is cut by plotter for your model and finished with wrapped edges, indoors in one of our ten bays. Coverage runs from door edges and cups to the whole car, and a ceramic layer can go over the film for $650 in the same booking.
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.

Bayswater to Mitcham
The run from Bayswater to Cook Road in Mitcham is about 9.8 km via EastLink. Outside peak hour that is around 15 minutes, and you park on site when you arrive. Bayswater 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.
Wear and Tear Pack from $380
Door cups, door edges and the boot ledge pick up marks on every car, however carefully it is driven. This pack covers them in clear film and is the cheapest way to keep a car looking looked after at trade-in.
Freeway Kilometres on EastLink
Coming from Bayswater usually means time on EastLink. Sitting behind traffic at freeway speed is the classic recipe for a chipped bonnet edge and a pitted bumper, which is why a full front is where most commuters start.
Free Check in the First Month
Every film job includes a free inspection in the first month to look over the edges, and we suggest a yearly check after that. Booking it takes a phone call.
Films We Fit
Clear gloss and satin films come from Defcon Films Australia first, with STEK as our second range. STEK DYNO films carry a ten year warranty against yellowing, bubbling, cracking and delamination.
One Workshop, in Mitcham
Bayswater is close enough that a separate branch would make no sense. All PPF 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 PPF in Melbourne lists what to check.
How Long the Car Stays
Headlight film is under an hour, a full front about two days and full body film about a week. Bayswater is close enough that waiting at home while we work is realistic. Saturday mornings are open 8:30am to 12:30pm.
What Moves a PPF Quote
Panel area sets the base price and shape does the rest: a deep bumper full of sensors and vents takes far more film and time than a flat bonnet. Swirled or resprayed paint is machine polished first, from $850, because film shows what is under it. The full breakdown is in our PPF cost guide.
Other Areas We Cover
Our PPF price list has the full range and prices. Nearby, we have also written up PPF in Ringwood, PPF in Croydon, PPF in Vermont, PPF in Mitcham and PPF in Nunawading, and the local area guides cover the rest of Melbourne.

Rated 5 out of 5 from 89 verified customer reviews.
We’ve been customers of Bobby for over 15 years, even before Liquid R was established, and we’ve continued to follow him ever since. That alone says a lot about the level of trust and quality they provide. The team at Liquid R consistently delivers outstanding workmanship. Every job is done with incredible attention to detail, care, and professionalism.

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.
Aidan Croxford
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…
Bas Dobbelaere
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

3 cars in 5 years! Jacky, Bobby and their team have consistently provided excellent service all these years. From ceramic coating to PPF of my new car and to clean up of my cars for sale. The experience and skills of the team gives me great confidence that my cars are in good hands. Great work Liquid R!
John Ling
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.
Ivan Adrianto
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.

Edit on 19/07/2024: I bought a new car (picture added) and got an updated version of what I got with my i30N (now called Paint Protection Pack 4) with an upgrade on the tint. Same experience as before, so would again wholeheartedly recommend. Also my car feels so silky, its surreal. ### The short version: Bobby and Jacky are running an incredibly knowledgeable and professional business.

No. Every price is the same wherever you live. The quote depends on the car and the work, never the postcode.
For cars that do freeway kilometres, usually yes. One repainted bumper costs more than a wear and tear pack.
Headlight film is under an hour, small coverage is done within the day, a full front is about two days and full body film is about a week.
