GYEON and ONYX ceramic coatings, machine paint correction and overspray removal for Garfield North drivers. We come to you, or you bring the car to our Berwick studio (29 km from Garfield North).
Acreage living around Garfield North is hard on a car's finish: unsealed drives, dirt roads, sheds, horse floats and the ute that does the real work. Most of the damage we see is from grit - and grit is exactly what a coating is best at shrugging off.
There is no sales team and no subcontracting. Andy assesses, corrects and coats every car from Garfield North himself, with more than thirty years on paint behind him, and will tell you honestly if a job is not worth doing.
Loose gravel flicks up into the front and the sills. Coatings do not stop impacts, but they seal the surrounding paint and make chips less of an entry point.
Farm and trade utes carry dirt, feed, chemicals and tools. A coated tray, canopy and paint takes a fraction of the time to clean.
Towing floats and trailers throws mud and grit up the back of the car and onto the tow bar area.
Wet-season mud packs into wheel arches and sills and holds moisture against the metal.
We inspect the paint under proper lighting and measure the clear coat, then tell you what it actually needs.
Iron-fallout treatment and a clay strip, so nothing is ever sealed in under the coating.
Machine polishing in measured stages to remove swirls and etching rather than fill them.
GYEON or ONYX applied panel by panel and cured under cover — in the studio, or in your garage on a mobile job — with the warranty registered.
CDS is mobile across Melbourne's south-east, Garfield North included, and also runs a studio in Berwick (29 km from you) if you would rather drop the car in. Acreage properties usually have the room, the shed and the power a mobile job needs, so on-site work suits most of what we do out here. Mention your parking set-up when you enquire and Andy will say honestly which way gives the better result.
Yes, including trays, canopies, bars and raw plastics. They benefit as much as the paint does.
No. Stone chips are impact damage and only paint protection film meaningfully reduces them. A coating seals the paint around them.
Yes. Interior detailing handles dust, droppings and odour, and coating the fabric makes it easier to keep clean afterwards.
