PPF Malvern
PPF for Malvern Drivers
Liquid R serves Malvern and the rest of Melbourne’s south east from one workshop in Mitcham, about 19.9 km away and roughly 30 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.
The film is a clear urethane layer with a self-healing top coat, so light scratches relax out in the sun. We fit it in our own indoor bays, with the maker’s warranty on the film and ours on the installation, plus a free check in the first month.
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.

The Drive from Malvern
The run from Malvern to Cook Road in Mitcham is about 19.9 km via Burwood Highway. Outside peak hour that is around 30 minutes, and you park on site when you arrive. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
Headlight Film from $180
Polycarbonate headlight lenses yellow and pit, and a modern headlight unit can cost more than a full front of film. Precut clear film keeps them clear and goes on in under an hour while you wait.
Freeway Kilometres on Burwood Highway
Coming from Malvern usually means time on Burwood 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.
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.
One Workshop, in Mitcham
Every car from Malvern goes into the same indoor bays in Mitcham as every other car. One site, our own staff and no subcontractors is how the warranty stays simple. 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. For Malvern customers we line up drop-off and pickup times when you book, so you know exactly which days the car is with us. We are open weekdays 8:30am to 5:00pm and Saturdays to 12:30pm.
Film on a New Car First
Film bonds best to paint that has never seen a freeway, so the ideal booking is straight from the dealer. We photograph any delivery defects before covering them, and new car packages bundle film with coating and tint.

Jacky and the team at Liquid R did a fantastic job with a full PPF wrap and window tinting on my 300 Series LandCruiser. Great pre and post sales service too. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for.
Andrew Wood
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
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.
Kento Nishimatsu
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.
Stanley
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!

Extremely professional service from Jacky and the team. Everything was explained thoroughly and I never felt worried throughout the whole process. The team went above and beyond. I got the XPEL PPF wrap and it turned out…

Paul Birchall
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.
Nik Doumas
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.
Steven Yap
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.

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.
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.
Headlight film starts at $180, the wear and tear pack at $380, a full front at $1980 and full body clear film is $5980. Larger vehicles and complex bodywork are quoted individually.
