Getting Here from Essendon
From Essendon the workshop at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham is about 32.5 km away, roughly 45 minutes via Eastern Freeway outside peak hour. There is parking on site and a bay booked for your arrival. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
Usually Same Day
A standard car is dropped in the morning and collected in the afternoon. Keep the windows up for two to three days while the adhesive cures, and expect a light haze in the first week that clears on its own.
Darker Is Not Cooler
Shade blocks the light you see, while heat arrives mostly as infrared you feel. A dark budget tint can let more heat in than a light ceramic film, so the real choice is film technology within the legal shade. Our ceramic tint guide explains why.
Privacy for Passengers
Darker legal shades on the rear glass keep eyes off child seats, bags and laptops, while every shade we fit blocks 99 percent of UV for the people sitting in the back.
Essendon Customers, One Workshop
Let us be straight: Mitcham is not around the corner from Essendon. What you get for the drive is indoor bays, inspection lighting and our own team on your car, rather than a van in a car park. More about who we are, and if you are comparing shops, our guide to the best car tinting in Melbourne lists what to check.
Booking and Turnaround
A standard tint is usually same day. 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.

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.

Very professional. Great job. Thanks
Robin Stephens
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 is the most patient, honest and passionate professional. He was so willing to share his expertise – even when I didn’t appear to be anything other than a researcher! He was far from where I live but I chose him because he gave me quality for a competitive price right from the outset and he did not try and deter me from going to my local company.
Monique Robin
Jacky and his team have a great eye for detail and did a great job on our new car. He took the time to go over after care thoroughly to ensure I understood it well. He clearly takes pride in his work and I would highly recommend.
Jacinta Kong
The guys were fantastic, they took their time showing me the different products and were very knowledgeable. I had PPF applied to my previous vehicle by another company and wasn't happy with the result, however this time the job was impeccable. The upgrades I selected raised the price substantially, but it was worth it. I'll be taking my other cars there as well. I highly recommend Liquid R.
Just an average guy
Booked our new car in for the ceramic coating and window tint package liquid r offers already knowing the quality and pricing is going to be much better than a car dealer. Jacky and his team have an absolutely ridiculous eye for detail and went above and beyond to make sure the car was looking as you’d expect being brand new.

I asked the guys to help with ceramic coating and tinting my vehicle and was super pleased with the results. The place looks super high-tech and very clean and the consultation seemed like they really care about paint and wrapping/tinting. Had to leave car overnight for the ceramic coating and tinting to take, so when you book keep this in mind. On pickup the car was ready and waiting and I was taken through the…

2 years on and our ceramic coat is still looking fantastic, and our high end window tint has been performing better than I imagined. Jacky's advice is invaluable, and LiquidR's ability to accommodate special requests has been hugely helpful. Thanks Guys!
Roger Whitbread
Jacky and team did a stellar job coating and tinting the new car. Although there were some mishaps with the tint, Jacky was on top of the communications and was able to remediate efficiently. Highly recommend to anyone who are looking for a ceramic coat or tint for their vehicles.

Yes. 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.
No. Every film we fit is metal free, so tolls, GPS and phone signals are unaffected.
3M Color Stable starts at $495, 3M Ceramic IR at $595, 3M Crystalline at $750 and Defcon CoolVue from $695, fitted.
