Modella, and what it does to paint

Modella is farming country - flat, open, and served by roads that are dusty in summer and muddy in winter. Cars and utes here cover real distances, and it shows in the paint, the wheels and the interior.

There is no sales team and no subcontracting. Andy assesses, corrects and coats every car from Modella himself, with more than thirty years on paint behind him, and will tell you honestly if a job is not worth doing.

What your paint is up against in Modella.

Winter mud

Wet-season mud packs into arches, sills and underbodies and holds moisture against the metal.

Bug strike on the highway

Long highway runs leave bug residue on the front end and glass. It is acidic and etches if left; coated paint releases it easily.

Fertiliser and chemical splash

Farm chemicals and fertiliser dust are harsh on paint and trim. Sealing the surface keeps them from getting a grip.

Utes and working vehicles

Trays, canopies and tool boxes take a beating. Coating them makes the weekly clean-up far quicker.

Services

What we do for Modella cars.

The process

From first look to final cure.

01

Look and measure

Paint depth readings and a close look under the lights before anything touches the car.

02

Deep clean

A full wash, then chemical and clay decontamination to strip out what washing leaves behind.

03

Polish

Correction matched to your paint - gentler on soft clear coats, more passes on hard ones.

04

Seal

The coating goes on panel by panel and cures under cover before the car goes back on the road.

FAQs

Modella ceramic coating questions.

Mobile or studio - which suits a Modella car?

CDS is mobile across Melbourne's south-east, Modella included, and also runs a studio in Berwick (36 km from you) if you would rather drop the car in. A shed or a closed garage is ideal for a mobile job. Some owners would rather tie it in with a trip into town and leave the car at the studio instead. Mention your parking set-up when you enquire and Andy will say honestly which way gives the better result.

Can you clean up a working interior?

Yes. We deep-clean seats, carpets and trim, and coat the fabric so dirt and spills are easier to deal with next time.

What about chalky, faded trim?

Faded plastic trim can usually be restored and then coated so it does not go grey again.

How long will the vehicle be off the road?

Most jobs are one to three days. We can plan around harvest or busy periods if you tell us when you book.
