Lockdown Detailing

09/06/2025

Hey everyone! I’ve got some bittersweet news to share.

As many of you know, as detailing is a bit of a side job for me, I’ve been eagerly awaiting new career opportunities for the last 18 months. The good news is that time has come and I am about to start my new role as a Paramedic!

The sad news is that this will require me to move away, thus Lockdown Detailing will wrap up as I simply will not have the time to run it to the standard I have for the last (almost) 5 years.

For all of my regulars - I will contact you all individually to recommend someone else to take over your service. To you all, I thank you tremendously. Your trust and patronage means the absolute world to me and I am extremely thankful.

For everyone whose cars have been ceramic coated - your warranty is unaffected. For any questions, concerns or warranty claims, please contact Gtechniq Australia directly as you normally would.

I will wrap up this month (weather depending) with all of my currently booked customers, but after that, I’ll be done!

Thanks again to you all, I’m keen for the next chapter 🙏🏼

Bit late on posting this one, but a little while ago I was stoked to freshen up this ripper black Raptor for Raff from Leeman Construction.

Black cars are typically a scourge, but the paintwork on this one came up a treat after an extensive decontamination wash, iron decon + clay bar treatment, sealed with Bowden's Own Premium Car Care Happy Ending for 2-3 months of super hydrophobic protection.

A phenomenal example of a well-used Land Rover Defender was brought to me for a thorough detail before ongoing maintenance detailing today and I was absolutely stoked with how it came out.

A thorough wash, decontamination and sealant application, followed by a deep cleanse of all interior surfaces + protective coating applied to the floors, door cards + seats. This will make maintenance a breeze and protect it against the dangers of the little ones!

I will soon have this beauty back for a paint correction and ceramic coating to take it up to the next level!

🥂 LAST CERAMIC COATING OF 2024 🥂

Shaun and his Dad found me through my listing on the Bowden's Own Premium Car Care website as one their Preferred Detailers and entrusted me to protect their new beauty!

This gorgeous, champagne-coloured CX-5 came to me to receive a thorough decontamination, single-stage paint correction polish and an extensive coating in Gtechniq Crystal Serum LIGHT 5-year warranty ceramic coating and the super hydrophobic top coating of Gtechniq EXOv5 🤯

I was absolutely stoked with the results, and will soon be returning to do another one of their cars!

If you're after having a ceramic coating applied to your pride & joy, get in touch!

Lots of fun down with the legends at All Earthmoving Parts this morning!

They recently got a new delivery van and wanted it looking top notch - so it received a Deluxe Exterior Detail and will now be stunningly glossy and hydrophobic for a good few months.

Quick one the other day, with none other than Mrs. My Bellarine Kitchen herself getting me around to give the MBK Mobile a nice freshen up!

I’ve been a fan of MBK for a long time, they make some of the best cakes & sweets on the Bellarine. Highly recommend you pay them a visit!

❌ 2024 is now FULLY BOOKED ❌

Hey all,

Firstly some great news, as the headline suggests, I am now completely booked for the remainder of the year! I’ve kept a couple of slots free in case I need to reschedule anyone, but I am not accepting any more jobs until 2025.

Secondly, if you want to get onto my waiting list for a paint correction, ceramic coating or other detailing service when I open my books for January, please get in touch.

Take care and I’ll see those of you who’re booked in soon!

Darcy

PS - enjoy this picture my lovely partner took of me in the middle of a long detailing day whilst I was having lunch and evidently really stoked.

Oil stained VN Commodore? No worries

The owner of this stunning VN recently got in touch with me as the oil refinery he works at had an incident which caused oil to splatter all over his pride and joy and stain the paint, bonnet and side mirrors.

A thorough decontamination wash and light machine polish removed all oil residue and gave the original white paint a beautiful new lease on life.

AFTER ➡️ BEFORE

A last minute engine bay tidy up pre-sale!

Whilst out of sight and out of mind for most, having your engine bay tidied up before it’s sold can really impress prospective buyers and increase your cars resale value.

I only have about half a dozen bookings available before Christmas - so get in touch ASAP!

💚 2024 Suzuki Jimny 💚

Recently, I had my first Jimny through Lockdown Detailing! Alex hired me to protect his new baby and I am absolutely stoked with the results.

Following a single-stage paint correction to address some light swirling & water spotting, this beauty was coated with Gtechniq Crystal Serum ULTRA 9-year warranty ceramic coating & top coated it with Gtechniq EXOv5. This brilliant combination affords this paint insane amounts of gloss, depth & clarity to the lovely solid green paint, but also some incredible hydrophobic, self-cleaning performance.

🩶 2023 Toyota GR86 🩶

A bit over a month ago, Jacob reached out to me to give his stunning new baby a paint correction & ceramic coating package.

I gave the vehicle a light paint enhancement polish and coated it with Gtechniq Crystal Serum ULTRA 9-year warranty ceramic coating & top coated it with Gtechniq EXOv5. This brilliant combination affords this paint insane amounts of gloss, depth & clarity to the lovely metallic grey paint, but also some incredible hydrophobic, self-cleaning performance. After its maintenance wash today, I am incredibly happy with the results achieved here.
