From swirl removal to a multi-year graphene coating, Nangana cars are looked after two ways: mobile, at your place, or at our Berwick studio roughly 24 km up the road.
Cars in Nangana live under trees. Tall canopy means constant shade and damp, and with it eucalypt sap, leaf litter and bark that sit on the paint and hold moisture against it for days.
Every Nangana booking is handled by Andy himself — owner-operated, 30+ years on paint, and the same standard for a daily driver, a work ute or a weekend car. Tell us the car and what is bothering you and you will get a straight answer.
Around Shepherd Creek Natural Features Reserve.
Cars parked under canopy grow moss in window rubbers and panel gaps, and mould inside if they are left closed and damp.
Falling bark and small branches scratch roofs and bonnets, and dropped debris in the cowl blocks drains.
Mountain roads throw up grit and leaf debris into sills and wheels, and tight corners mean a lot of kerbed rims.
The Ranges are full of birds, which means frequent droppings on cars parked under trees. Coated paint lets you remove them before they etch.
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 works mobile in Nangana and from the Berwick studio, which is about 24 km from you, so it is your choice. In the hills it is the damp and the tree canopy. A coating cannot cure under dripping trees, so a mobile job needs a garage or a good carport - otherwise the studio keeps it dry. Either way it is the same person, the same products and the same registered warranty.
We clean, decontaminate and coat wheels. Kerb damage to the rim itself is a wheel-repair job, and we will point you to someone good.
It will not stop sap landing, but it stops it bonding. On sealed paint you can lift sap off safely instead of finding an etched ring days later. Existing rings are polished out first.
Usually. Tannin staining responds well to decontamination and a polish, and a coating makes it much harder for new stains to set.
