Protect your new car from day one. Choose PPF for stone chip areas, ceramic coating for easier washing and gloss, or Icon Rocklear for premium long-term protection, based on how and where you drive.
A new car is the easiest time to protect the paint, because the finish is still clean and the damage hasn’t started. We help you choose the right setup based on how you drive. PPF suits stone chip areas, ceramic coating suits easy maintenance and gloss, and Icon Rocklear suits long-term durability.
Protect now, maintain less later.
Most new car owners choose based on one priority. Stone chip defence, easy maintenance, or long-term durability.
A premium protection system for owners who want long-term durability and a finish that stays easier to maintain.
A protective coating that boosts gloss and makes washing faster, with added resistance to grime and staining.
A clear film designed to protect high-impact areas like the front end from stone chips, scuffs, and road debris.
Most people choose paint protection based on one main goal. Pick yours, then we match the right option.
Start with PPF on the high-impact areas like the front bumper, bonnet, guards, mirrors, and headlights.
Ceramic coating is made for low maintenance. It helps keep the car cleaner, glossier, and easier to wash.
Icon Rocklear is a premium option for owners who want a durable system and a finish that stays easier to maintain over the long haul.
The first months are when most swirls, chips, and staining start. Protecting early helps keep the finish looking newer for longer and makes upkeep easier from day one.
Want the simplest path? Contact us and we will guide you.
If you want your new car to stay looking sharp without constant polishing, protection is the smart move. It is especially worthwhile if you do freeway kilometres, park outside, or want a premium finish that is easier to maintain from the start.
These three questions usually decide the right protection setup. Pick the one that sounds like you.
If yes, protecting the front end early makes sense. That is where chips and road wear build up first.
If you want the car to stay cleaner with less effort, choose a protection option that focuses on maintenance and surface resistance.
If this is a long-term car, investing in a more durable protection system can pay off in fewer corrections and a better finish over time.
Every new car protection booking includes the essentials to get the finish right from day one:
Safe wash and decontamination to remove transport grime and fallout
Paint inspection and prep so protection sits clean and performs properly
Application of your chosen protection option (PPF, ceramic coating, or Icon Rocklear)
Final check and handover guidance for simple aftercare
Pricing depends on your vehicle size, the protection option you choose (PPF, ceramic coating, or Icon Rocklear), and the coverage level. We also factor in the prep required, because even new cars can arrive with light marks or contamination that needs to be removed for the best finish.
Every service is backed by experience, quality products, and our satisfaction guarantee.
Most new car protection takes 1 to 2 days, depending on the option and coverage.
We confirm your priority, stone chip defence, easy maintenance, or long-term durability, then match the right protection and coverage.
We wash and decontaminate, then prep the paint so your chosen protection is applied to a clean, smooth surface.

PPF (Paint Protection Film)
Avoid washing for 72 hours after installation.
Hand wash where possible and avoid brush washes that can dull the film or lift edges.
Ceramic coating
Let the coating cure and avoid getting it wet for the first 12 hours (or as advised for your coating).
Maintain with safe washing and proper drying to reduce swirls and keep performance strong.
Icon Rocklear
Do not wash for 7 days, and avoid rubbing or applying pressure while it hardens.
Avoid brush and automatic washes during the early cure period.
Longevity depends on exposure, parking, and wash habits. Where available, manufacturer warranties vary by product and conditions. Icon Rocklear states a 15-year manufacturer warranty for automotive paint. We will confirm the warranty details for your chosen option at booking and handover.

Answers to the most common questions new car owners ask in Perth, including PPF, ceramic coating, Icon Rocklear, timing, aftercare, and warranties.
It’s a set of protection options designed to keep your new paint looking newer for longer. Most people choose between PPF for stone chip areas, a coating for easier maintenance and gloss, or a long-term system like Icon Rocklear.
If you want to keep the finish sharp with less maintenance, yes. Even new cars can pick up light marks early from washing, road grime, and freeway driving, so protecting it early usually saves you from correcting it later.
It depends on your priority. If you want stone chip defence, start with PPF on high-impact areas. If you want easier washing and gloss, ceramic coating is a great fit. If you want premium long-term protection, Icon Rocklear is worth considering.
Yes. A common setup is PPF on the front end or impact zones, then a coating style protection on the rest for easier washing. We can tailor coverage based on your driving and where the vehicle is parked.
As soon as you can, especially if you do freeway kilometres. The earlier it’s protected, the less chance of swirls, staining, or chips building up before protection goes on.
Dealer packages vary a lot. The best move is to ask exactly what product is being applied (PPF, a true coating, or a sealant), what prep is included, and what warranty you receive in writing. If you want, we can compare the options with you before you commit.
It depends on the option and how it’s maintained. Manufacturer warranties also vary by product. Icon Rocklear states it is backed by a 15-year manufacturer guarantee for its coating system.
Aftercare depends on what you choose. For PPF, manufacturer guidance commonly recommends waiting about 72 hours before washing. For coatings and long-term systems, we’ll give you the exact curing and care steps at handover.
