PPF Southbank
PPF Southbank: Fitted in Mitcham
Southbank drivers come to Liquid R in Mitcham for PPF. The workshop is about 28.5 km from Southbank, roughly 40 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.
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.

Southbank to Mitcham
From Southbank the workshop at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham is about 28.5 km away, roughly 40 minutes via Eastern Freeway Onramp outside peak hour. There is parking on site and a bay booked for your arrival. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
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.
Car Park Knocks and Stone Chips
Local driving brings its own damage: door edges tapped in shopping centre car parks, handle cups scratched by rings, and stones from the car in front. A wear and tear pack from $380 covers the first two.
Edges Wrapped, Not Cut Short
The edge is the weak point of any film job. Where the panel allows it, film is wrapped around the edge and finished out of sight, so there is no line to see and nothing for a pressure washer to lift. It is one of the checks in our guide to the best PPF.
Washing a Filmed Car
pH neutral shampoo, a soft mitt, no brush car washes, and keep the pressure washer a hand span from film edges. Bird droppings and sap should come off promptly, and stubborn water spots come out at our counter in minutes. The full routine is on our aftercare page.
One Workshop, in Mitcham
Liquid R has one workshop, in Mitcham, and it is a fair drive from Southbank. 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 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. 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.
PPF or Ceramic Coating
Film stops stone chips. A ceramic coating makes the car easier to wash and holds the gloss, but does nothing against impacts. Plenty of owners run film on the front and a coating over the rest. Our PPF vs ceramic coating guide compares them.

Visted Jacky and the team to get package 4 treatment for my Zeekr 7x. First time getting PPF, ceramic coating and window tinting on my car and could not be happier by the results. I highly recommend Jacky and his team.

I Had my car cut and polished by Liquid R and can’t recommend these guys highly enough! Jacky thoroughly inspected the car and explained to me what needed to happen and the job was done really well. He also went through the proper washing and maintenance process for my car. Bobby was also very helpful when I picked up the car. Thanks guys!

Just had my BMW X5 done with the Paint Protection Pack 4 at Liquid R — couldn’t be happier. The car looks incredible, the gloss and finish are better than new. The team were great to deal with, explained everything clearly and really took pride in their work. The ceramic coating, PPF, tint and interior protection were all done perfectly. Worth every dollar if you want your car protected and looking its best.

Recently brought my new (5000KM) CX5 to Liquid R for a polish and ceramic coat. Very happy with the experience and result, the car looks better than before. Dirt doesn’t stick to the car like it did before the coating which make a big difference on a dark colour.

Having just bought a brand new Tesla Model 3, I booked it in with Liquid R and after discussing with Jacky elected for a Ceramic Coating and window Tint. Jacky was very helpful and obliging. He also agreed to fit some new mud flaps i ordered for the car. I took delivery of my new car and drove it straight to Liquid R. 2 days later i picked up the car and am extremely happy with the result. Bobby was very helpful too…
Richard Guthrie
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.

I highly recommend choosing Liquid R for any of your vehicle care needs. I had the full exterior XPEL PPF (Paint Protection Film) applied to my 2025 M4 CS, along with the interior center console, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. Working with both Jacky and Bobby throughout the entire process was an absolute pleasure.
Nicholas Mladenov
Jacky and his team did an amazing job taking all the tree sap off my white Mazda cx5. I had left it on for months so it was really stuck onto my paint nothing i tried worked and other detailers couldn't get it off properly. My car now looks brand new. Was a bit pricey for me but it is worth it since my car looks like it's straight out of a dealership now.

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…

Thanks Bobby and his team for looking after our new car. All in one package for ceramic coating, PPF and window tint.

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.
No. Professionally removed film releases with heat and leaves factory paint as it was when covered.
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.
