Our approach
Preparation Is What You’re Actually Paying For
Every vehicle gets the same standard, whether it’s a new dual-cab ute, a Tesla, a caravan or a motorbike with a matte tank. One workshop, one standard, no production line.
A ceramic coating locks in whatever is underneath it. Apply one over swirl marks, transport marks or dealer wash damage and you’ve sealed that damage in for years. So every job starts with a full wash, chemical and clay decontamination, and an inspection under proper lighting, before any decision about correction.
As a Certified Fireball Installer we buy direct, train on the product and apply it the way the manufacturer specifies, so the warranty paperwork is right from the start.

What We Don’t Do, and Why
We don’t sell paint protection film
PPF has one real advantage: it resists stone chips. On most vehicles it costs several times what a coating does, looks wrong on single panels, and chips are comparatively cheap to repair.
We don’t sell interior protection
We haven’t found an interior product that delivers enough value to justify what the industry normally charges for it.
We don’t guess at a price
Resprayed panels, peeling clear coat, classics and show cars need to be seen first. We’ll tell you that rather than guess over the phone.
We don’t do mobile work
Everything is done under cover in our workshop, where the result is much better. Aircraft are the exception: they’re done in the hangar.
