Top-Notch Quality On Every Part Of Your Car
There are a lot of great detailers out there — and since you spent hard-earned money on your car, it deserves to be met with top-notch quality. Unlike other shops that charge extra for add-ons, our competitive pricing includes full protection for every part of your vehicle.
Exterior Paint & Bodywork
Premium ceramic protection across all exterior panels — included as standard, never charged as an add-on.
Wheel Rims & Brake Calipers
Your wheels and calipers are coated too, so brake dust and road grime wipe away instead of baking on.
Exterior Plastics & Trim
Trim and plastics are protected against the Sydney sun, helping them resist fading and oxidisation.
Full Interior Surface Protection
Interior surfaces are sealed for easier cleaning and lasting protection — covered in the same price.
Our Meticulous 14-Step Application Process
We do not cut corners, and we don't rush perfection. This intensive 14-step process typically takes two of our experienced detailers a whole day to complete — ensuring your Prizm or Graphene coating bonds flawlessly and permanently.
Wheels & Exterior Decontamination
Precision Wheel Prep. Iron-dissolving spray on wheels and arches, then foam and a hand contact wash.
The First Rinse. The whole vehicle is rinsed to strip away loose dirt and road grime.
pH-Neutral Foam Bath. We blanket the car in a premium, ultra-slick pH-neutral snow foam.
Safe Two-Bucket Contact Wash. Hand-washed with the two-bucket method to prevent micro-scratching.
Intricate Detail Agitation. Ultra-soft brushes clean grills, emblems and tight edges, then a full rinse.
Chemical & Mechanical Cleansing
Chemical Iron Decontamination. An iron-remover dissolves embedded brake dust, fallout and rail dust, rinsed off on time for total paint safety.
Mechanical Clay Bar Treatment. A lubricated clay bar lifts bonded impurities, leaving the clear coat glass-smooth.
Final Decontamination Rinse. A comprehensive rinse for an absolutely clean slate before moving undercover.
Clinical Drying & Inspection
The Critical Dry Flight. Premium towels and hot-air blowers target water-trapping zones — one hidden drop can ruin a coating.
Studio Lighting Inspection. Under studio lights we inspect the clear coat and machine-correct swirls and scratches if needed.
IPA Panel Wipe. An IPA wipe strips polishing oils, leaving the "grippy" texture the coating needs to bond.
Coating Application & Levelling
Precision Section Application. Your Graphene or Prizm coating is hand-applied in small, controlled sections.
Flashing Window Management. We watch the coating "flash" over 30–60 seconds, depending on Sydney's humidity.
Two-Towel Levelling System. The first towel levels, the second perfects — an immaculate shine with zero high spots.

What Goes Into A Coating That Lasts
A coating is only ever as good as the prep underneath it and the care after it. Here's exactly what that involves — no fluff, just what we actually do and what we'll ask of you.
What Paint Correction Is & Why It Matters
Paint correction — some people call it buffing or cutting — is where we use a machine polisher (a rotary or dual-action) to remove a tiny percentage of the clear coat on your paint. It sounds dramatic, but those swirls and light scratches you can see only sit in the very top of the clear coat. By gently levelling that layer, we even everything out and the imperfections disappear.
As a rule of thumb, a single-stage correction removes around 60–70% of swirls and scratches, while a two-stage correction takes that to 90–95%. It also dramatically boosts the gloss and clears up any existing hazing. Honestly, if those imperfections don't bother you, you can absolutely get a coating without correction — just know it will semi-lock those marks in, so it's worth deciding before we start.
Why Cheap Coatings Fail
Almost every time someone comes to us saying their last coating "failed," it comes down to one thing: the paint was never prepped properly. A coating is only as good as the surface it bonds to, and good prep takes time.
The easiest way to gauge a job is how long it takes. If a coating is rushed on in a couple of hours, the paint almost certainly wasn't decontaminated and prepped properly for the coating to bond — which is why those jobs start failing within months instead of lasting years. We'd rather do it once and do it right.
What To Expect On The Day & Aftercare
Most coatings take two of us a full day, whether that's at your place or a studio we rent out. If we're coming to you, all we need is access to a power outlet and an outside tap. No garage? No problem — we set up our own tent and work under it, because the car has to be in shade. If direct sun hits the paint while we're machining it, it can burn through the clear coat, and we don't take that risk. Once we're set up, you don't have to lift a finger — we'll keep you updated throughout the day.
- ✓First 24 hours: keep it out of the rain while the coating fully cures.
- ✓pH-neutral soap only — never use anything harsher to wash it.
- ✓No automatic car washes — the brushes will ruin the finish.
- ✓Wash it monthly at minimum to keep it performing.
- ✓Light clay bar once a year keeps the surface slick.
Stick to that and your coating keeps working perfectly, and your car keeps looking immaculate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our ceramic coating Sydney cost typically ranges from $900 to $1,500+ AUD depending on your vehicle's size and how much paint correction prep work it needs. Because a premium graphene coating Sydney seals your paint semi-permanently, we must machine-polish out scratches and swirl marks first.
Dealerships routinely charge massive markups for cheap, quickly applied sealants. At Mirrors Protection, we use professional-grade paint protection Sydney formulas that create a genuine molecular bond. We spend days prepping and perfecting your paint under precision studio lighting, not hours.
No. While a premium car paint protection Sydney coating significantly hardens your clear coat to resist swirl marks, bird droppings, and light wash scratches, it cannot stop flying road debris or vandalism. For physical impact defense, ask us about layering Paint Protection Film (PPF) under your coating.
The harsh Sydney sun, coastal salt air, and industrial fallout will rapidly fade and oxidize unprotected clear coats. Our Sydney ceramic coating packages block intense UV rays and create a super-slick surface that prevents tree sap and acidic bird droppings from permanently etching into your paint.
Yes, we offer mobile installations across Sydney! However, because professional coatings require strict protection from direct sunlight, wind, rain, and airborne dust while bonding, you must have a fully enclosed garage or a clean, undercover workspace available for us to perform the service safely.
