Why Dealership Paint Protection Isn’t Always the Best Choice
Buying a new car often comes with a hard sell on dealership paint protection or a dealer ceramic coating. While it may sound convenient, most Melbourne drivers don’t realise that these packages are usually overpriced and applied with little attention to detail.
At Liquid.R, we specialise in aftermarket paint protection that puts quality first. Our coatings are installed in a controlled workshop environment by experienced technicians, not rushed through as an upsell in a dealership. This ensures your car’s finish is protected properly from day one.

Our Aftermarket Paint Protection for Cars in Melbourne

Professional ceramic coatings with hydrophobic properties

Full new car protection packages with warranty-backed coverage
Our products are proven, durable, and tested to perform in Australian conditions.
Aftermarket Ceramic Coating vs Ceramic Coating at Dealerships
Many drivers ask about the difference between ceramic coating at dealerships and an aftermarket ceramic coating. Here’s the reality:
Dealership ceramic coating: Often applied quickly with basic preparation, limited durability, and inflated costs.
Aftermarket ceramic coating: Applied with precision by trained specialists, delivering maximum gloss, water-repelling protection, and years of warranty-backed results.
By choosing Liquid.R, you’re not just buying a product – you’re investing in craftsmanship and care that dealerships rarely provide.
Which Aftermarket Paint Protection is Right for Your Car?
Selecting the right solution depends on your driving habits, budget, and the type of car you own. For daily drivers, our ceramic coatings provide reliable year-round protection and ease of cleaning. For prestige or performance vehicles, adding a paint protection film layer ensures extra defence against chips and scratches.
