Ceramic coating, paint correction and paint protection for Mornington 3931 — mobile, at your home or workplace, or at our Berwick studio about 33 km away.
Living by the water in Mornington is hard on a car in ways that are easy to miss. Salt spray settles on every surface, the sun off the water is relentless, and sand finds its way into sills, wheel arches and carpet regardless of how careful anyone is.
There is no sales team and no subcontracting. Andy assesses, corrects and coats every car from Mornington himself, with more than thirty years on paint behind him, and will tell you honestly if a job is not worth doing.
Around Bentons Square, Mornington Central and Mornington Village Shopping Centre.
Towing through salt water and parking near the ramp puts salt straight onto the lower panels and wheels. They need a proper rinse, and coating makes that rinse effective.
Exterior metal trim pits and dulls in salt air. Coating it keeps it bright.
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.
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 Mornington or at the Berwick studio, about 33 km away. 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. Tell us where the car is kept when you book and you will get a straight answer on which suits the job.
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.
