Window Tinting South Melbourne
Window Tinting near South Melbourne
Liquid R serves South Melbourne and the rest of inner Melbourne from one workshop in Mitcham, about 27.7 km away and roughly 40 minutes by car outside peak hour. Tint starts at $495 for genuine 3M Color Stable, with 3M Ceramic IR from $595 and Crystalline from $750, all in legal Victorian shades.
Ceramic films such as 3M Ceramic IR and Defcon CoolVue reject the infrared heat you feel through the glass, while 3M Color Stable keeps the price down. 3M films are warranted for as long as you own the car.
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.

Getting Here from South Melbourne
From South Melbourne the workshop at 12/23A Cook Road, Mitcham is about 27.7 km away, roughly 40 minutes via CityLink and Burwood Highway outside peak hour. There is parking on site and a bay booked for your arrival. Directions and opening hours are on our contact page.
Old Tint Removed
Purple or bubbled film, the usual end of cheap tint, comes off with heat, including the glue on the demister lines, and the glass is cleaned back before new film goes on. Illegal tint from a previous owner is swapped for a legal shade in the same visit.
3M Color Stable from $495
Genuine 3M film that never turns purple, with 99 percent UV block and up to 57 percent total solar energy rejection in every legal shade. For most daily drivers this is the right tint.
Tint in a New Car Package
3M Color Stable is built into Pack 3 and Pack 4 of our new car packages, and both can be upgraded to Ceramic IR or CoolVue. One drop-off covers coating, interior protection and tint.
Glass Roofs and Crystal Shield
Panoramic roofs on cars like the Tesla let in heat even when the glass blocks UV. We tint the roof glass or fit Crystal Shield, a clear film from $350 that cuts heat soak and adds a strike face against falling stones.
Why Customers Come to Us
Liquid R has one workshop, in Mitcham, and it is a fair drive from South Melbourne. 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 car tinting in Melbourne lists what to check.
Booking and Turnaround
A standard tint is usually same day. Coming from South Melbourne, it makes sense to combine jobs, such as film and coating, or a detail with tint, into one booking so the drive happens once. We confirm the timing when you book.
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.

Armin Roohani
Jack and his team did an absolute amazing job and was very professional! Dropped off the car for coating and tinting and was extremely satisfied. Walked us through how to care for the car as well before I picked it up. Would definitely…

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.

John Robertson
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 his team did a fantastic job tinting my car. Jacky took the time to explain the different tint options and I’m really happy with the end result. Highly recommend!
Jimmy
Jacky and the team came highly recommended. I was nervous because it's a brand new car (Kia Stinger) and I was being precious. After speaking to Jacky, I realised there was no way I could do ceramic coating with the dealership. It took around 6-8 weeks to get in. I went with package 3 which was tint, ceramic coat and interior but Jacky was able to adjust as I chose not to do the interior.
Byron Trzeciak
Jacky and the crew at Liquid R completed full PPF (paint protection film) on my SQ8, the end result is out standing! 🤩🤩🤩 never in my life have i seen water bead off body panels like it does now!! They even put PPF on my lower door sills so my wheelchair doesn't scuff my paint work when i get in and out. i have booked in my 2nd car for PPF as well…
Zane Williams
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.
3M Color Stable starts at $495, 3M Ceramic IR at $595, 3M Crystalline at $750 and Defcon CoolVue from $695, fitted.
