Professional paint protection for Malvern East 3145: decontamination, correction and a certified coating, carried out on site in Malvern East or at the CDS studio in Berwick.
Owners in Malvern East 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.
There is no sales team and no subcontracting. Andy assesses, corrects and coats every car from Malvern East himself, with more than thirty years on paint behind him, and will tell you honestly if a job is not worth doing.
Around Chadstone Shopping Centre, Darling station and Holmesglen station.
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.
Even garaged cars pick up fine dust, and car covers dragged across a dusty panel leave their own marring. A coating makes the surface far more forgiving of both.
Cars that only come out on good days still oxidise sitting still, and they are usually the ones owners most want kept perfect. They are ideal candidates for a multi-year system.
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.
We can come to you in Malvern East, or you can bring the car to the studio in Berwick, roughly 31 km away - both are on offer. 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. If you are unsure, send a photo of where the car lives with your enquiry and we will work out the best option.
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.
Usually. We measure the clear coat first, because a previous heavy polish may have taken some of it. If there is enough left, holograms and buffer trails can be refined out; if there is not, we will tell you before starting.
For a garaged car where the look in direct sun matters most we generally lean GYEON for its clarity; for a car that does real kilometres, ONYX 10H graphene for durability. Often either is a good answer and we will say so.
