Professional paint protection for Jam Jerrup 3984: decontamination, correction and a certified coating, carried out on site in Jam Jerrup or at the CDS studio in Berwick.
Salt is the whole story in Jam Jerrup. 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.
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 Jam Jerrup is exactly what gets done.
Wet towels, sunscreen and sand wear interiors quickly. Coated fabric and leather resist sunscreen marks and moisture.
Salt film on glass scatters light and makes night driving harder. Glass coating keeps it clearer and sheds water at speed.
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 is abrasive. Wiping it off a panel scratches the paint, and it packs into sills, seat rails and carpet.
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.
We can come to you in Jam Jerrup, or you can bring the car to the studio in Berwick, roughly 36 km away - both are on offer. 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. If you are unsure, send a photo of where the car lives with your enquiry and we will work out the best option.
Yes. Brightwork and plastic trim suffer as much as paint by the water, and both can be coated.
Rinse the lower panels, wheels and the tow bar area after every ramp run. Coated wheels and sills make that rinse far more effective.
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.
