Looking after cars in Belgrave

Cars in Belgrave live under trees. Tall canopy means constant shade and damp, and with it eucalypt sap, leaf litter and bark that sit on the paint and hold moisture against it for days.

CDS is owner-operated. The person who looks at your paint is the person who corrects and coats it — Andy, with 30+ years of experience — so what you are quoted for Belgrave is exactly what gets done.

The Dandenong Ranges and hills

What your paint is up against in Belgrave.

Winding roads and grit

Mountain roads throw up grit and leaf debris into sills and wheels, and tight corners mean a lot of kerbed rims.

Bird life

The Ranges are full of birds, which means frequent droppings on cars parked under trees. Coated paint lets you remove them before they etch.

Fog on the glass

Fog and damp leave a film on the windscreen that makes wet-weather and night driving harder. Coated glass stays clearer and sheds water.

Eucalypt sap

Gum sap is sticky and acidic. On a warm day it sets hard and etches a ring into the clear coat that no wash will remove.

FAQs

Before you book from Belgrave.

Mobile or studio - which suits a Belgrave car?

CDS is mobile across Melbourne's south-east, Belgrave included, and also runs a studio in Berwick (14 km from you) if you would rather drop the car in. In the hills it is the damp and the tree canopy. A coating cannot cure under dripping trees, so a mobile job needs a garage or a good carport - otherwise the studio keeps it dry. Mention your parking set-up when you enquire and Andy will say honestly which way gives the better result.

Do you fix kerbed wheels?

We clean, decontaminate and coat wheels. Kerb damage to the rim itself is a wheel-repair job, and we will point you to someone good.

Can a coating stop sap damage?

It will not stop sap landing, but it stops it bonding. On sealed paint you can lift sap off safely instead of finding an etched ring days later. Existing rings are polished out first.

My white car has brown marks from leaves. Can they come out?

Usually. Tannin staining responds well to decontamination and a polish, and a coating makes it much harder for new stains to set.
