Ceramic coating, paint correction and paint protection for Forest Hill 3131 — mobile, at your home or workplace, or at our Berwick studio about 27 km away.
Cars in Forest Hill work for a living. They get washed quickly between everything else, parked on the street when the driveway is full, and loaded with kids, dogs and sports gear. The paint shows all of that - and nearly all of it is fixable.
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 Forest Hill is exactly what gets done.
Around Forest Hill Chase, Peter James Centre and Brentford Square Shopping Centre.
Food, drinks, muddy boots and dog hair. Interior coatings seal fabric and leather so spills can be blotted up instead of soaking in.
Shopping-centre car parks leave light scuffs and transfer on door edges. Transfer can usually be polished off; a coating makes the next one easier to remove.
Stop-start suburban driving loads wheels with hot brake dust that bakes into the finish. Coated wheels rinse clean instead.
If the plan is to keep the car for years, protecting it once properly costs less than repeated polishing that thins the clear coat each time.
Paint depth readings and a close look under the lights before anything touches the car.
A full wash, then chemical and clay decontamination to strip out what washing leaves behind.
Correction matched to your paint - gentler on soft clear coats, more passes on hard ones.
The coating goes on panel by panel and cures under cover before the car goes back on the road.
Andy is mobile as well as studio-based, so the work can be done at your place in Forest Hill or at the Berwick studio, about 27 km away. Most family homes have a garage or carport, which is all a mobile job needs, and it saves you juggling a second car for the drop-off. Tell us where the car is kept when you book and you will get a straight answer on which suits the job.
Yes. We deep-clean and coat leather, fabric and trim so spills, dye transfer and grime stop soaking in.
Most coatings are a one to three day job depending on how much correction the paint needs. You will get an exact timeframe when we assess it.
If the clear coat is oxidised but still intact, a restoration polish usually brings the colour back. If it has started to peel, no polish will fix it and we will tell you straight.
