Every coating, film and tint is fitted in a sealed, dust-free, temperature-controlled space. The work is only as good as the environment it's done in.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What people ask us most.

How much does ceramic coating cost in Port Stephens?
Ceramic coating at Harford Auto Studio starts from $1,350. Every tier includes full paint correction before the coating is applied.
What's the difference between PPF and ceramic coating?
PPF (paint protection film) is a clear, self-healing film that physically absorbs stone chips, swirls and scratches. Ceramic coating is a chemical layer that locks in gloss and repels water and dirt — but doesn't stop physical damage. Most premium clients install both: PPF on the high-impact panels, ceramic over the top.
How long does ceramic coating last?
Our coatings deliver 5 to 9 years of protection depending on the package, with paint correction always included. The 9-year Crown package uses GTECHNIQ Crystal Serum Ultra, the longest-lasting ceramic technology available.
Where is Harford Auto Studio located?
We're at 8 Shearwater Drive, Taylors Beach NSW 2316 — servicing all of Port Stephens including Nelson Bay, Salamander Bay, Anna Bay, Soldiers Point, Raymond Terrace and Medowie. Open Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM.
Do you offer mobile service?
No — all work is completed in our climate-controlled studio at Taylors Beach. This gives us the dust-free, temperature-controlled environment that premium coatings and films require for the best result and longest warranty.
