PPF Lilydale
PPF Lilydale: Fitted in Mitcham
Lilydale drivers come to Liquid R in Mitcham for PPF. The workshop is about 16.7 km from Lilydale, roughly 25 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.
Customers from Lilydale 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.

The Drive from Lilydale
Allow roughly 25 minutes from Lilydale outside peak hour. The route is about 16.7 km via Maroondah Highway and Ringwood Bypass, ending at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham, where there is parking out the front. If you would rather not wait, Mitcham and Heatherdale stations on the Lilydale and Belgrave lines are both about 1.5 km from the workshop. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
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.
Full Front PPF from $1980
Bonnet, front bumper, guards and mirrors in self-healing film, about two days in the workshop. Freeway gravel lands almost entirely on the front third of a car, which is why most daily drivers stop here.
Freeway Kilometres on Maroondah Highway
Coming from Lilydale usually means time on Maroondah Highway. 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.
Satin and Stealth PPF
Satin film turns gloss paint into a satin finish without changing the colour, and it protects factory matte paint that can never be polished. The film takes the scratches and heals light marks, so the finish stays even.
One Workshop, in Mitcham
We are not a mobile service and we do not have a Lilydale shopfront. The work is done in Mitcham because PPF needs dust-free bays, inspection lighting and time, all of which a driveway lacks. More about who we are, and if you are comparing shops, our guide to the best PPF in Melbourne lists what to check.
Planning the Visit
Headlight film is under an hour, a full front about two days and full body film about a week. We agree the drop-off and pickup times with you up front, so a trip from Lilydale fits your week rather than the other way round. We are open weekdays 8:30am to 5:00pm and Saturdays to 12:30pm.
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.

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.

I got coating done on my car. Unfortunately they missed a patch on the bonnet in the middle where they couldn't reach (lol). Now I have a rectangle area where it collects dust more than the rest. And rain water doesn't slide as well as the rest. EDIT: They have fixed the patch 🙂 They fully deserve 5 star for their promptness and great customer service.

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!

I can't thank Jacky, Bobby, and the team enough for the fantastic PPF work they did on my van: incredible workmanship and an absolute pleasure to deal with- Highly recommended.

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…

This is the second car I've taken to the team at Liquid R and I cannot believe how good these guys are. Worth every cent to revive the paint work to better than new! Thank you very much Jacky and Bobby, keep up the fantastic work.

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.

Jacky and his team did an excellent job with the PPF and 3M Ceramic Tint. Its been 2 years since it was applied and the car still looks like new. You won't know the car has PPF applied, that is how flawless it is. Definitely coming back.

Jacky and team at Liquid R were extremely knowledgable, helpful and professional. Jacky was very accomodating with my appointment and rescheduled multiple times due to delays with the arrival of my new car. The PPF, ceramic coating and tinting was done well, and the ongoing support is also great (my million questions were all answered!). Highly recommended for any level of detailing required!
Lily
It's not often people share a positive experience but here's five stars for Jacky and Liquid R. Dropped our newly purchased Tesla Model 3 off to Jacky and the team for their 'package 4' deal which includes front half covered in PPF, ceramic coat of exterior and interior protection, and window tint. Early days so we can't comment on the quality of product however the car looks amazing. Have gone to other detailers…

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.
Film stops stone chips and a coating makes the car easier to keep clean. Many owners do film on the front and a coating over the rest.
Yes. The paint is decontaminated and machine polished where needed first, then filmed.
