Why Sunshine Coast Drivers Choose Gyeon
The combination of high-intensity Queensland UV and corrosive coastal salt air breaks down factory clear coats far faster than inland climates. Auto Emporium is the Sunshine Coast's certified GYEON accredited installer — the pinnacle of paint protection, sought after by discerning owners and elite detailers alike.
Only top-tier studios are even considered for GYEON's application process, let alone approved to become certified installers. That accreditation is a promise to you: world-class products, applied to world-class standards.
Join us at our state-of-the-art, custom-built detail studio in Caloundra West and give your car the absolute best. We offer two tiers of protection: Gyeon Flash for reliable daily-driver defence, and our certified Gyeon Infinite package for the ultimate show-car finish backed by an extended studio warranty.
- Chemical Bonding: Gyeon fuses with your clear coat on a molecular level, preserving clear coat integrity far longer than waxes that melt away.
- Dual Layer Application: Our certified multi-layer process adds measurable depth and durability (optional upgrade).
- Extreme Hydrophobicity: Self-cleaning effect that repels water, dirt, coastal salt spray, and bat droppings before they can bond to your paint.
- UV & Chemical Resistance: Shields against Queensland's extreme UV index, oxidation, tree sap, and environmental fallout that eats through unprotected finishes.
Premium Gyeon Ceramic Coatings Prices & Packages
Choose GYEON's mid-range Flash EVO — a 3–5 year certified coating delivering outstanding hydrophobicity and paint protection for everyday drivers. Or upgrade to the top-tier Infinite: a lifetime warranty coating that is unrivalled in the industry and widely regarded as the best ceramic on the market by owners and detailers alike.
Add Dual Layer (+$300) to either package for measurable paint depth and 30% more gloss.
Flash EVO — performs in the 3–5 year range under standard use, or up to a 10-year warranty with bi-annual maintenance visits at our studio.

"Decided to keep the Triton so had Robin... do paint correction and a Ceramic Coat. Absolutely an amazing transformation. Triton looks like new... I travelled from Buderim to Caloundra for an awesome job."
The Auto Emporium Difference Car Paint Protection 3-Stage Process
Many mobile detailers will simply "wash and coat" your car, sealing in scratches and swirl marks forever. We don't. Our meticulous 3-stage process takes 2–3 days because each step must fully cure before the next begins — this is what separates a professional result from a quick-and-coat job.
- 1
Decontamination
Chemical removal of iron and tar, followed by a clay bar treatment to ensure a 100% clean surface.
- 2
Paint Correction
Machine polishing to physically remove defects like swirl marks and scratches, restoring optical clarity.
- 3
Jewelling & Coating
Final ultra-fine polish for maximum gloss, followed by the precise application of Gyeon ceramic protection.
"I recently had scratches repaired and a ceramic coating applied... The quality of the work is outstanding. The scratches are gone and the finish on my car looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor. The coating adds a stunning, glassy shine that really makes the color pop."
Our Work
Interior Leather Ceramic Protection
Don't stop at the paint. We also offer advanced Gyeon Leather Shield ceramic coatings for your vehicle's interior. This specialised formula bonds to modern leather upholstery without altering its matte finish or feel.
It repels dirt, prevents denim dye transfer, and protects against UV fading and liquid spills. It's the ultimate invisible shield for maintaining that "new car" interior for years. Ask about adding an interior package to your booking.

Visit Auto Emporium Studio in Caloundra
Auto Emporium is located at 21 Daniel St. Our custom-built Caloundra West studio provides the stable temperature, clinical lighting, and wind-free conditions required for GYEON coatings to cure correctly and qualify for their studio warranty.
Flash curing under uncontrolled humidity leads to a cloudy, hazy finish that compromises the coating's hydrophobic properties and longevity.
We are conveniently situated in the Caloundra West Industrial Estate:
- From Caloundra Rd: Turn onto Pierce Ave, then right onto Daniel St. We are 2 minutes from the Sunshine Coast Aerodrome.
- From Aura / Bells Creek: Just a 5-minute drive via the Aura Blvd connection.
- Reception Entry: Please enter via 2 Geoffrey St for customer parking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ceramic coatings offer incredible gloss and ease of maintenance, but they are not a magic, maintenance-free shield. The main things to be aware of:
- High Upfront Cost: Professional application requires intensive preparation and skilled labour.
- Not Scratch-Proof: It will not protect against deep scratches, vandalism, or rock chips — you need Vinyl Wrap or PPF for that.
- Still Requires Washing: Regular washing with pH-neutral soap is essential. If neglected, mineral deposits and water spots can form on the coating surface.
No. Ceramic coating is completely transparent and will actually magnify existing imperfections. This is why we always require paint correction prior to application — a specialised machine polish that removes swirl marks, light scratches, and oxidation so the coating seals in a perfect, flawless finish.
We do not offer mobile ceramic coating. While mobile detailing is fine for maintenance washes, a high-end ceramic coating must be applied in a controlled, dust-free indoor environment. Coatings applied outdoors risk contamination, uneven curing, and voided warranties.
Surprisingly, yes. Even brand-new Sunshine Coast cars straight from the dealership typically have minor swirl marks from improper washing, transport damage, or lot-care handling.
A light paint correction is almost always required to decontaminate the surface and ensure the GYEON coating bonds properly to the clear coat — delivering the showroom-superior finish it's designed for.
Ceramic coatings dramatically reduce maintenance effort, but they aren't maintenance-free. To keep your coating performing at its best:
- Wash regularly with a pH-neutral car shampoo. Avoid harsh detergents or automatic car washes with abrasive brushes.
- Dry properly with a clean microfibre towel to prevent water spots from mineral-heavy Sunshine Coast tap water.
- Annual maintenance wash: We recommend a professional decontamination wash once a year to remove embedded contaminants and restore peak hydrophobic performance.
