Correct it. Coat it. Keep it that way.

You do not need to choose a coating before speaking to us. Send through the vehicle and a quick description of the paint, and we will recommend the preparation and coating option that actually makes sense.

Four quick steps. No payment, no obligation.
Got it.
Your details are with Quantum Detail. We'll call or text you with the coating and preparation we'd recommend, and confirm the price once we've seen the paint.
This is why we correct first.
A coating locks in whatever is underneath it. Swirls, haze and wash marring get sealed in for years if they are not removed first. Scroll, and watch the job happen on the car and inside the paint.
Skip to the packagesInspect under studio lighting.
Defects are assessed panel by panel before anything is polished. Move across the car: your pointer is the Scanlight, and it shows what daylight hides.
Your paint, magnified.
Under the gloss are four layers: steel, primer, the colour coat and a clear coat roughly 40 microns thick, about half the width of a human hair. Every swirl, every scratch and every coating lives in that top layer.
As it arrives.
Wash swirls and scratches are tiny valleys cut into the clear coat. They scatter light, which is the haze and spider-webbing you see in the sun. Iron fallout and tar sit bonded on top, and water sits flat.
Decontaminated.
Iron remover, tar remover and clay lift what a wash can't, so nothing gets dragged across the paint once the polisher starts.
Two-step correction.
Compounding, then refining, levels the clear coat down to the bottom of the defects. Only a few microns come off. Most of the clear coat stays exactly where it is.
Two-step machine correction.
Swirls and marring are cut out, then refined for clarity and gloss, panel by panel across the whole car.
Coat the corrected finish.
Crystal Serum Ultra cures into two layers. A softer, flexible 7H base bonds to the clear coat and moves with the paint through heat and cold. On top, a crosslinked 10H layer takes the wear and resists harsh chemicals.
Crystal Serum locks in the result, not the damage.
The coating goes on panel by panel, cures overnight in the studio, and the warranty is registered before you collect the car.
Now rinse it.
Drag across the car. On coated paint, water pulls itself into tight beads and rolls away instead of sitting flat and drying into spots.
Water stops sticking.
Water pulls itself into tight beads instead of sitting flat, so it carries dirt away rather than drying into spots.
What ceramic won't do.
A stone at highway speed goes straight through any coating. Ceramic is about gloss, chemical resistance and easy cleaning. For chips, you want LLumar paint protection film.
Corrected. Coated. Kept that way.
That is the whole job, and it takes two days in the studio.
Two ways to lock in the finish.
Both Correct & Coat packages include wash, decontamination and two-step paint correction before coating, because a coating locks in whatever finish is underneath it. Both take two days in the studio.

Our Python Yellow RS3, chosen by Gtechniq
Independent recognition of the finish standard we aim to deliver on every car.
Verify our accreditationWater doesn't stick around.
On a coated panel, water pulls itself into tight beads and rolls away instead of sitting flat and drying into spots. That is what makes washing faster and stops water marks etching into the finish.
Environmental protection
Helps protect against long-term UV and environmental exposure in Queensland conditions.
Hydrophobic performance
Water releases more readily and contamination has less chance to dwell on the surface.
Chemical resistance
A sacrificial, chemically resistant barrier helps reduce the risk of staining and etching.
Enhanced gloss
Greater clarity, depth and a wetter finish, particularly noticeable on dark and metallic paint.
Improved swirl resistance
Added abrasion resistance helps reduce light wash marring when the car is cared for correctly.
Easier maintenance
Dirt releases more easily, the car stays cleaner for longer and washing gets much quicker.
Not wax. Not sealant. A chemical bond.
A ceramic coating chemically bonds with the clear coat to create a durable protective layer designed to last years when maintained correctly. A wax or sealant adds short-term gloss; a professionally applied coating changes how the surface behaves for the long term.
Wax / Sealant
- Easy to apply at home
- Adds short-term gloss and water repellency
- Shorter durability
- Lower chemical and environmental resistance
- Needs regular reapplication
- No meaningful abrasion resistance
Gtechniq Ceramic
- Chemically bonds to the surface
- 5 or 9-year warranty options
- Strong hydrophobic performance
- Chemical and environmental resistance
- Improved resistance to light wash marring
- Much easier maintenance
Precision shows.
Every panel prepared, every surface assessed, every coating applied in a controlled studio. No shortcuts, and no coating over defects simply because the bottle is expensive.
Not just prestige cars. Cars worth keeping right.
Before you book it in.
At Quantum Detail, Correct & Coat with Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light is $1,499 for sedans, hatches and coupes, $1,799 for SUVs, dual-cab utes, 4WDs and 7-seaters, and $2,099 for American trucks. Crystal Serum Ultra is $1,898, $2,198 and $2,498. Prices include GST and two-step paint correction before the coating goes on.
At our studio at Unit 1, 38-40 Claude Boyd Parade, Corbould Park, between Caloundra and Kawana. Cars are dropped off and collected Monday to Friday. Ceramic coating is studio-only so the paint can be prepared and cured properly; for mobile detailing at home or work, our sister business Sunshine Coast Detailing comes to you.
Allow two days for a Correct & Coat package. That covers the wash, decontamination, two-step correction and coating, plus time for the coating to set before the car goes home. Heavily defected paint or add-ons can extend this, and we will tell you up front.
Both packages get the same preparation and two-step correction. Crystal Serum Light carries a 5-year warranty option and suits most vehicles. Crystal Serum Ultra is Gtechniq's flagship professional coating, with stronger durability and a 9-year warranty option. If you plan to keep the car long term, CSU is usually worth it.
The coating needs time to fully cure, so avoid washing and harsh chemicals for the first week. We walk you through the exact care schedule at handover, including how to wash safely so the coating keeps performing.
No. Ceramic improves resistance to light wash marring, chemicals and the environment, but it will not stop stone chips or deep scratches. For impact protection, paint protection film (PPF) is the right product, and it can be combined with ceramic.
Often, yes. New cars regularly arrive with wash marks from the dealer or transport. For vehicles under three months old, our New Car Protection packages are usually the better fit, with ceramic, tint and PPF options.
We register your Gtechniq warranty before you leave the studio, so there is nothing for you to do. To keep it valid, wash the car correctly (we show you how at pickup) and bring it in for its free ceramic check-up every 12 months.
Corbould Park. Sunshine Coast.
All ceramic coating work is performed at Unit 1, 38-40 Claude Boyd Parade, Corbould Park. Vehicles are dropped off and collected Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm.
This is a studio drop-off service. We look after owners from across the Sunshine Coast who want controlled preparation and accredited application rather than a driveway coating.
Correct it first. Then protect it properly.
Tell us what you drive and what condition the paint is in. We will recommend the coating and preparation that actually make sense for the vehicle.
