The Ceramic Coatings We Apply
We don’t use unbranded, no-name products. Ryan’s applies professional-grade ceramic coatings from three of the most respected names in paint protection, and we choose the right one for your car’s paint, age and how you use it:
- Gtechniq — a UK-developed coating range trusted by professional detailers worldwide, known for its hardness and long-term gloss retention.
- CarPro — renowned for its hydrophobic performance and slick, glassy finish. A strong all-rounder for daily-driven cars that live outdoors.
- Clean by Pan — a specialist coating system we use where a deeper, warmer gloss is the priority.
Depending on the product and package you choose, your coating is warranted to last 2, 5 or 10 years. We’ll tell you honestly which coating suits your vehicle and budget before we book you in — and we’ll explain what it will and won’t do, rather than overselling it.
How We Apply Ceramic Coating at Your Home or Work
Most ceramic coating in Melbourne means dropping your car at a workshop for two or three days. We do it in your driveway or your workplace car park instead — the same process, without you losing the car or arranging a lift.
- Paint inspection and quote. We assess the paint’s condition, note existing defects and confirm which coating and package suits the car.
- Deep wash and decontamination. A thorough wash, then chemical and clay decontamination to strip embedded iron, tar and industrial fallout. Coating over contaminated paint locks the contamination in.
- Paint correction. We machine-polish to remove swirl marks and light scratches. This is the step that determines the final result — a ceramic coating seals in whatever is underneath it, so the paint must be corrected first.
- Panel wipe. Every panel is wiped down to remove polishing oils, so the coating bonds directly to the clear coat.
- Coating application. The ceramic coating is applied panel by panel by hand, then levelled by eye under lighting before it flashes.
- Curing and handover. The coating needs time to cure before the car gets wet. We’ll tell you exactly how long to keep it dry and walk you through aftercare before we leave.
What we need from you: a flat, shaded spot such as a garage, carport or covered car park, access to power and water, and enough room to work around the car. If you’re not sure your space is suitable, send us a photo and we’ll tell you.

Ceramic Coating Cost in Melbourne (2026)
Ceramic coating in Melbourne generally runs from about $800 to $4,000. That’s a wide range, and the reason is simple: the price is driven far more by how much paint correction the car needs than by the coating itself. A brand-new car needs very little correction. A ten-year-old daily driver with swirl marks and faded paint needs a lot — and that labour is where the cost sits.
What we charge:
- Brand new cars (up to 10,000 km) — from $990 (sedan), $1,150 (SUV), $1,300 (large SUV / 4WD). Minimal correction needed, so this is the cheapest time to coat a car.
- Used cars — $1,400–$1,600 (sedan), $1,500–$1,800 (SUV), $1,600–$1,900 (large SUV / 4WD). The range reflects how much paint correction your car needs.
What drives the price up or down: vehicle size, the coating you choose and its warranty length (2, 5 or 10 years), the current condition of your paint, and whether you add glass or interior protection. A larger 4WD simply has more panels to correct and coat than a hatchback.
Is it worth it? If you keep your car more than a couple of years and park outside, generally yes. The Australian sun is the real enemy here — UV bakes unprotected clear coat until the colour looks flat and chalky. A coating costs more upfront than a wax, but a wax lasts a few months and a coating lasts years. It also makes washing dramatically easier, which for most owners is the benefit they notice first.
A 1-year vs a 5-year coating: the shorter-life products cost less and are genuinely fine if you’re selling the car soon. If you’re keeping it, the longer-warranty coatings work out cheaper per year of protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does ceramic coating make my car scratch-proof?
2. Will I never have to wash my car again with ceramic coating?
No. A ceramic coating makes washing much easier and less frequent, not unnecessary. Dirt and water bead off rather than bonding to the paint, so a rinse removes most of it — but your car still needs regular washing to stay clean and for the coating to perform as it should.
3. How long does ceramic coating last?
4. Does ceramic coating fix paint imperfections like scratches or swirl marks?
5. Is graphene coating better than ceramic coating?
6. How much does ceramic coating cost in Melbourne?
Across Melbourne, ceramic coating typically ranges from about $800 to $4,000. Our pricing starts at $990 for a brand-new sedan and runs to $1,900 for a used large SUV or 4WD. The biggest single factor is how much paint correction your car needs before the coating goes on — new cars need very little, older cars need more.
7. Can I apply a ceramic coating myself at home?
You can buy consumer-grade coatings, and they will add some protection. The catch is that a ceramic coating seals in whatever is underneath it — so if the paint has swirl marks or contamination, a DIY application locks those in for years. The professional products we use also require controlled preparation and levelling. Most of what you pay a detailer for is the correction work before the coating, not the bottle itself.
8. Can I wax over a ceramic coating?
You can, but there is no real benefit. A ceramic coating already outperforms wax, and adding wax on top simply sits over the coating and masks its hydrophobic behaviour until it wears off. Stick to a pH-neutral car shampoo and, if you want to top it up, a coating-specific maintenance spray rather than a traditional wax.

Why Settle for Weeks When You Can Have 5 Years of Protection?
Unlike traditional waxes or sealants that vanish after a few washes, a ceramic coated car stays protected for years. The coating forms a permanent bond with the clear coat, shielding it from UV rays, oxidation, and environmental damage.
Hydrophobic Properties for a Cleaner, Shiny Finish
The advantages of ceramic coatings become obvious the first time it rains. Due to their hydrophobic properties, water beads roll off, taking dirt with them. This means easier cleaning and less time spent with microfiber towels and buckets.
Protect Your Car from Scratches, UV Damage, and Costly Detailing
Defence Against the Elements
Ceramic coatings can significantly reduce damage from bird droppings, tree sap, and acid rain.
UV & Weather Protection
The Australian sun is brutal; it bakes the paint until the colour looks flat and chalky. This coating acts like a permanent sunscreen. It seals the surface against oxidation, so the car stays vibrant through the worst heatwaves.
Chemical Resistance
Your car will be better equipped to handle harsh chemicals and chemical stains that would otherwise eat into the paint.
Cost-Effective in the Long Run
Ceramic coating cuts down on the need for constant waxing and professional detailing. You save money by skipping the constant professional corrections. It’s a one-time setup that keeps maintenance simple.
