Bonbeach, and what it does to paint

Salt is the whole story in Bonbeach. Air off the water carries a fine saline film that settles on paint, trim and brightwork and keeps working on it long after the car looks dry.

There is no sales team and no subcontracting. Andy assesses, corrects and coats every car from Bonbeach himself, with more than thirty years on paint behind him, and will tell you honestly if a job is not worth doing.

Bayside and coastal

The things that wear paint down in Bonbeach.

Windscreen haze

Salt film on glass scatters light and makes night driving harder. Glass coating keeps it clearer and sheds water at speed.

Salt air

A fine saline film settles on the car constantly and attracts moisture. On a coated car it rinses off; on bare paint it sits and works away at it.

Sand in everything

Sand is abrasive. Wiping it off a panel scratches the paint, and it packs into sills, seat rails and carpet.

Reflected UV

Sun off the water adds to the direct UV load, which is what fades reds and blacks and chalks plastic trim.

Services

What we do for Bonbeach cars.

The process

What happens on the day.

01

Look and measure

Paint depth readings and a close look under the lights before anything touches the car.

02

Deep clean

A full wash, then chemical and clay decontamination to strip out what washing leaves behind.

03

Polish

Correction matched to your paint - gentler on soft clear coats, more passes on hard ones.

04

Seal

The coating goes on panel by panel and cures under cover before the car goes back on the road.

FAQs

Questions we get from Bonbeach.

Is CDS mobile in Bonbeach?

Andy works mobile in Bonbeach and from the Berwick studio, which is about 19 km from you, so it is your choice. Near the water it is salt air and the sea breeze that matter: a coating needs to cure dry and out of the wind. A closed garage does that; otherwise the studio does. Either way it is the same person, the same products and the same registered warranty.

I tow a boat. Anything I should know?

Rinse the lower panels, wheels and the tow bar area after every ramp run. Coated wheels and sills make that rinse far more effective.

Will a coating stop rust?

It will not fix existing rust, and it cannot seal a chip that is already through to metal. It does slow corrosion by keeping salt off intact paint.

Can you get sand out of the interior?

Yes - a proper interior detail gets sand out of seat rails, carpet and vents, and a fabric coating makes the next lot easier to vacuum.
