(01) — The Atelier

We don't wash cars. We restore the relationship between light and paint.

LUSTRA is a single-bay studio, not a production line. We accept a limited number of vehicles each week so that every panel receives the attention of a master technician — measured, corrected, and protected by hand.

Our craft sits at the intersection of chemistry and obsession. Coating systems rated for a decade. Film cut to the tenth of a millimetre. Finishes measured under calibrated light, never guessed.

(02) — Disciplines

Four disciplines. One standard.

01

Paint Correction

Multi-stage refinement that removes swirls, holograms and etching to restore true optical clarity — measured under calibrated light, never filled.

02

Ceramic Coating

A semi-permanent glass layer that locks in depth, repels water and contamination, and keeps the finish effortless to maintain for years.

03

Paint Protection Film

Self-healing urethane, computer-cut and hand-wrapped to the vehicle — invisible armour against stone chips, road rash and time.

04

Window Tint

Precision-cut ceramic film that rejects heat and UV without the purple haze — clarity in, glare out, cabin controlled.

SVC — machine polishing, defect removal

(03) — The Result

Depth you can fall into.

A LUSTRA finish isn't shine — it's clarity. Reflections resolve to a mirror. Colour gains dimension. The car looks the way the designer intended, only better.

(04) — The Method

Five stages.
No shortcuts.

01

Consultation

We assess paint depth, existing defects and how you use the car — then design a plan around it.

45 MIN
02

Decontamination

A meticulous multi-stage wash, iron removal and clay to leave the surface chemically and physically clean.

3–4 HRS
03

Correction

Machine refinement under calibrated lighting until reflections resolve to a true mirror.

1–3 DAYS
04

Protection

Coating, film or tint applied in a filtered, temperature-controlled bay — then cured overnight.

1–2 DAYS
05

Delivery

Final inspection under sunlight, a full care briefing, and the keys back — with documentation.

30 MIN
(05) — Evidence

Before, and after.

Drag to reveal a single-stage paint correction on a black metallic finish — swirls and holograms removed under 3,000 lux. No fillers, no glaze. Only corrected clear coat.

AFTER — corrected mirror paint, sharp reflection
BEFORE — swirled, hazy paint

(06) — In Their Words

"They returned a car I'd owned for nine years and made it feel like delivery day again."

★★★★★ GOOGLE

The clarity of the finish is genuinely unreal. LUSTRA treated a six-figure car like it was their own. Every reflection is now a mirror.

Booked for PPF and left with peace of mind. The film edges are invisible and the team walked me through everything. Zero hard sell.

Appointment-only, and now I understand why. This is craftsmanship, not a car wash. Worth every minute of the wait.

(07) — Questions

Before you
book.

Can't find your answer? Speak with a technician directly — we reply the same day.

Do you only work on exotic cars?

+

No. We work on any car its owner considers worth protecting — from a daily EV to a concours classic. The standard of work is identical; only the plan changes.

Why appointment-only?

+

Because correction and coating can't be rushed. We take a limited number of vehicles each week so every car gets uninterrupted bench time and a single lead technician from intake to delivery.

How long will my car be with you?

+

A ceramic package is typically two to four days; full-body PPF can run five to seven. We give you a firm window at consultation and a courtesy vehicle can be arranged.

How long does a ceramic coating last?

+

Our flagship system is rated up to ten years with an annual inspection. Real longevity depends on how the car is stored and washed — we teach you exactly how to maintain it.

Is everything guaranteed?

+

Yes. Coatings and film carry manufacturer-backed warranties, and our workmanship is guaranteed in writing. If it isn't right, it isn't finished.
