Vehicles we service
Daily runabouts through to prestige cars. The size of the car changes the price, because a double cab is a lot more panel than a Polo โ so here's where yours sits.
Why we ask what you drive
A Hilux bonnet is roughly twice the panel of a Swift bonnet. Twice the film, twice the polishing, twice the time. Charging both the same means one of you is subsidising the other.
So we group vehicles into four size classes and price against the class your car falls into. It's the reason we ask for the make, model and year before quoting anything.
Not sure which one yours is? Don't worry about it โ tell us the car and we'll place it.
The categories
GTI, A-Class , Mini Cooper and the like. Quickest jobs we do, and the cheapest entry into PPF or a coating.
Civic, C-Class, 3 Series. Longer bonnets and bigger boot lids than a hatch, so a bit more of everything.
Fortuner, Everest, Tiguan, Creta, X3. Tall panels and big tailgates. Worth protecting โ they spend more time on gravel than most.
Hilux, Ranger, D-Max, Navara, Amarok. These take the most abuse of anything we work on โ gravel, farm roads, loading. Front-end PPF earns its money fast on a bakkie.
M and AMG cars, Porsche, larger luxury saloons and seven-seaters. Complex panels, soft paint on some, and the cars where resale value moves the most.
Company cars, panel vans, LDVs, dealership stock. Multiple vehicles get priced as a job rather than one at a time โ get in touch and we'll work something out.

Gelcoat and marine paint take a harder beating than automotive finishes โ salt, UV and constant washdowns oxidise a hull fast. Paint correction and polishing brings faded gelcoat back to a true shine. Ceramic coating cuts down the washdown time after every trip and slows salt staining and UV fade between details. PPF on the bow, waterline and high-contact rub areas protects against dock rash, fender rub and rope wear โ the spots that take the most damage on any boat. Every vessel is different, so hull size, material and condition all get assessed before we quote.

Aircraft paint faces constant UV exposure at altitude and bug and grime impact on every flight โ correction and polishing restores a dull, oxidised finish without touching the factory coating underneath. Ceramic coating makes bug strikes and grime easier to wash off before they etch in, and cuts down turnaround time between flights. PPF on leading edges, the nose and high-wear panels protects against the debris and insect impact that hits an aircraft hardest. Specialist work โ every aircraft gets assessed individually before we quote.
Talk to us โAge and condition
On a car under a year old the paint is usually clean โ it needs decontaminating and light refinement before anything goes on top, and that's it.
Anything older has been washed a few hundred times, and the swirl marks that come with that need correcting properly before film or coating. More work, so it costs more. We'll ask how old the car is when you request a quote.
If the paint has real damage โ deep scratches, a previous respray, peeling clear coat โ we'd rather look at it ourselves than guess at a price. Send photos or we'll come and see it.
