Accredited Gtechniq and Ethos Graphene ceramic coatings with up to a 10-year warranty, applied in our Keysborough studio for cars across Dandenong, Springvale, Noble Park and Melbourne’s south-east.
Showroom gloss that lasts for years
A ceramic coating is a liquid nano-ceramic layer that bonds to your clear coat and cures into a hard, glossy, hydrophobic shell. Think of it as armour for your paint.
Deep, lasting gloss
A glass-like, wet-look finish that stays rich for years, not weeks like a wax.
Water simply beads off
Hydrophobic surface sheds water and dirt, so washing is faster and the car stays cleaner.
UV & chemical shield
Protects against Australian sun, bird droppings, bug splatter, tree sap and road grime.
Swirl-resistant hardness
A harder surface that resists light wash marring. Add PPF for stone chips.

How ceramic coating compares
Ceramic coating is the best way to keep paint glossy and easy to clean. For physical stone-chip protection, combine it with paint protection film.
| Ceramic coating | Wax / sealant | Paint protection film | |
|---|---|---|---|
| How long it lasts | 5–10 years | Weeks to months | Up to 12 years |
| Gloss & depth | Excellent | Short-lived | Good |
| Easier washing | Yes | Briefly | Some |
| UV & chemical protection | Yes | Limited | Yes |
| Stops stone chips | No | No | Yes |
Want both? We apply ceramic coating over paint protection film in the same visit.

How much does ceramic coating cost in Keysborough?
Our ceramic coatings start from $590 for Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light (5 years), $690 for Ethos Graphene Matrix Pro (10 years) and $790 for Gtechniq Crystal Serum Ultra (9 years). These prices include single-stage paint correction for 2025/2026 cars within 3 weeks of delivery. Older vehicles need a two-stage correction for an additional $200.
How long does ceramic coating last?
Between 5 and 10 years depending on the coating. Crystal Serum Light carries a 5-year warranty, Crystal Serum Ultra 9 years and Graphene Matrix Pro 10 years, when maintained as recommended.
Is ceramic coating worth it?
For most owners, yes. It keeps paint glossy, makes washing far quicker, and protects against UV, bird droppings and road grime for years, which also helps resale value.
How long does ceramic coating take?
Most new cars are done in a single day. Older cars that need two-stage paint correction can take longer; we’ll confirm timing when you book. A free courtesy car is available.
Do you register the warranty?
Yes. As an accredited Gtechniq and Ethos installer we register your coating with the manufacturer and give you a warranty card.
What are the free 6-monthly inspections?
Our 10-year Ethos Graphene Matrix Pro coating includes free check-ups every six months. We inspect and decontaminate the coating to keep it performing at its best. Gtechniq coatings don’t include scheduled inspections, but we’re always happy to check your car.
Gtechniq or graphene: which is better?
Both are excellent. Ethos Graphene Matrix Pro offers the highest hardness (13H) and longest warranty (10 years). Gtechniq Crystal Serum Ultra is Gtechniq’s flagship with a 9-year warranty. We’ll recommend the best fit for your car.
Does ceramic coating stop stone chips?
No. Ceramic coating protects against chemicals, UV and light marring, but not impacts. For stone-chip protection, add paint protection film to high-impact areas.
Should I ceramic coat a brand-new car?
Yes, it’s the best time. New cars need only a light single-stage correction, so the coating locks in the factory finish from day one.
How do I wash a ceramic coated car?
Wait 7 days before the first wash, then use a pH-neutral shampoo and the two-bucket method. Avoid automatic car washes with brushes. We’ll take you through aftercare at handover.
Do you service areas outside Keysborough?
Yes. Customers come from Dandenong, Springvale, Noble Park, Mordialloc, Clayton, Mulgrave, Rowville, Berwick and across Melbourne’s south-east.
