Ceramic coating, paint correction and paint protection for Bulleen 3105 — mobile, at your home or workplace, or at our Berwick studio about 38 km away.
Owners in Bulleen tend to notice the difference between a quick polish and a proper job, which suits the way we work. Every car is measured before it is touched, corrected in stages rather than one aggressive hit, and sealed with a coating chosen for clarity as much as durability.
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 Bulleen is exactly what gets done.

The most common issue here is not neglect but wash marring on otherwise sound paint. It is fully correctable, and the result on a dark metallic is dramatic.
Established gardens and nature strips mean sap, blossom and bird droppings, all of which etch into clear coat if they bake on through a warm week.
European clear coats are hard and take more passes to correct properly; Japanese and some EV finishes are soft and easy to over-polish. Each gets its own approach.
A fast rotary polish leaves buffer trails that only show in direct sun. We see plenty of cars that have been 'detailed' this way and need it undone before they can be coated.
You get a straight assessment of what the paint needs, and what it does not.
Wash, iron treatment and clay, so the surface is genuinely clean before it is corrected.
Swirls, holograms and etching are levelled out by machine, measured as we go.
A certified coating, a proper cure, a registered warranty and a simple wash routine.
Andy is mobile as well as studio-based, so the work can be done at your place in Bulleen or at the Berwick studio, about 38 km away. Established homes usually have what a mobile job needs - a garage or carport, power and water - so most work here can be done on site while you get on with the day. Tell us where the car is kept when you book and you will get a straight answer on which suits the job.
Yes. Older single-stage and early clear-coat paint needs a gentler approach and more care than a modern finish, which is exactly how we treat it.
A proper hand wash with a pH-neutral shampoo, and a check-over once a year. Avoid automatic brush washes - they are the fastest way to wear any coating down.
Yes - garaged cars have the best paint to protect. A coating keeps that finish from picking up wash marring and makes the car far easier to keep perfect between the days it comes out.
