What's in the package?

Two workshop services, booked into one visit, so a new car leaves protected inside and out.

Ceramic coating

From $999

Full decontamination and machine paint correction, then the coating, applied indoors by a Magnum-accredited installer. Interior, glass and wheel protection is included with every package at no extra cost.

Ceramic coating details

Window tint

From $250

Standard or nano ceramic film in a range of shades, fitted to Queensland's legal limits and backed by a lifetime warranty. Nano ceramic is the pick for beating the Queensland heat.

Why protect a car when it's brand new?

Because it's the one time the paint is at its best. A ceramic coating locks in whatever sits underneath it, so coating early, before a first year of washing adds swirl marks and the Gold Coast sun and salt air start their work, means minimal correction and the maximum result. Tinting at the same time protects the interior from UV from the very first drive, before the dash and seats take any sun. New cars still usually want a light machine polish first, since transport and dealership washes leave fine swirl marks, and we grade that at quote time. Doing both together, once, is the cleanest start a new car can get, and it does more for how the car presents and resells than almost anything else you could spend the same money on.

A new car protection customer, in her words

I reached out to J-Bros Detailing for their new car protection package which includes full exterior, full interior, glass and wheel ceramic coating. They replied promptly and answered all my questions with patience and kindness. I chose the 7 year ceramic coating cover option as it suited me and my needs the best. They were able to book me in within only a couple days and were extremely understanding and flexible with my schedule, which was so refreshing in the service industry. They made sure I was updated and constantly in the loop which was reassuring. Once I got my car back the results spoke for themselves, however the J-Bros team were able to show and explain to me what they did and it reflected in the high standard of knowledge, passion and care they take in what they do. I am beyond happy with the results and service the J-Bros team provided, I will definitely be a returning customer and would recommend them to anyone.

New car protection FAQs

Plain answers to the questions Gold Coast owners ask before booking.

What's in the New Car Protection Package?

It bundles our two workshop services into one visit: a ceramic coating and a window tint. The ceramic side runs the full sequence, decontamination, machine paint correction, then the coating, with interior, glass and wheel protection included at no extra cost. The tint side fits standard or nano ceramic film to your chosen shade, inside Queensland's legal limits. You hand over a new car and pick it up protected inside and out.

Why do it on a brand-new car?

Because it's the one time the paint is at its best. A ceramic coating locks in whatever sits underneath it, so coating early, before the swirl marks and etching a first year of washing adds, means minimal correction and maximum result. Tinting early protects the interior from UV from the very first drive. Doing both together in one booking is the cleanest start a new car can get.

How much does it cost?

The package is quoted per vehicle, because both the ceramic and the tint depend on your car. Ceramic coating starts from $999 and window tint from $250; we price the combined booking for your specific car and the options you choose, and give you the exact figure before any work starts. Call 0418 111 421 or use the quote form below.

Is it done in one visit?

Yes. Both the coating and the tint are done at our Burleigh Waters workshop, so we book them into the one visit rather than sending you to two places. We confirm the timeframe with your quote, usually one to two days depending on the paint correction the car needs, and call you the moment it's ready.

Can I book just the ceramic coating or just the window tint?

Yes. They are two standalone services and you can book either on its own. The package simply puts them into one booking, which saves you a second trip to Burleigh Waters and lets us plan the day around your car rather than around two separate jobs. Plenty of Gold Coast owners start with the ceramic coating and come back for tint later, and that is completely fine. If you are not sure which you want first, tell us how the car is used and where it lives overnight, and we will give you the honest order to do them in.

Does the package only make sense on a brand-new car?

No, a new car is just the best-value moment for it. Both services are available on any car, and we book them together for plenty of owners whose cars are a few years old. The difference is the prep: on a new car the paint usually needs only a light single-stage polish before coating, while older paint may need more correction to bring it back before the coating locks the finish in. That is a quote-time call once we have seen the paint, not something we decide by the car's age.

Where do I drop the car off, and when are you open?

Drop-off is at our workshop at Unit 41/314 Burleigh Connection Road, Burleigh Waters QLD 4220, an easy run off the M1 from anywhere on the Gold Coast. We are open Mon-Sat, 8am-6pm and closed Sundays, and we book drop-off and pick-up times around your day rather than making you wait. When the car is ready we call you, so you are not guessing. If you need to leave the car with us overnight between the coating and the tint, that is normal for this package and we will say so upfront when we confirm the booking.

Is interior, glass and wheel protection included, or does it cost extra?

Included, at no extra cost. Every J-Bros ceramic package protects more than the paint: the wheel faces are ceramic coated so brake dust wipes off, the glass gets a water-repellent coating, and Gtechniq protection goes on the leather, plastics and trims. A full interior detail is part of it too. On a brand-new car that means the cabin is protected before the first beach trip and the first spill, rather than after. Nothing on that list is an add-on we quote separately later.

How soon after I collect a new car should I book it in?

The first few weeks are ideal. A ceramic coating locks in whatever sits under it, so the less time the paint spends collecting swirl marks from washes and Gold Coast salt air, the less correction it needs and the better the finished result. Tinting early means the dash and seats never take a full Queensland summer of UV. There is no deadline and we coat plenty of older cars, but booking soon after delivery is the cheapest and cleanest version of this job. Call us with your delivery date and we will work back from it.

Do I need to wash or prepare the car before I drop it off?

No, leave it to us. Full decontamination is the first stage of every ceramic package: foam pre-wash, hand wash, chemical decontamination and a clay bar, before any polishing or coating happens. Washing it yourself beforehand changes nothing about the price or the process. All we ask is that you clear personal items out of the cabin and the boot so we can do the interior detail properly, and that you let us know about anything we should be careful with, like an aftermarket wrap, a recent respray or a panel that has been repaired.
