I found Jimmy online and was impressed by all the positive reviews so I thought I'd give him a go. I've just collected my car and am thoroughly impressed by the results. The car looks brilliant, better than the day I collected it from the dealer. I'd highly recommend Jimmy to anyone, his attention to detail is superb and his quality of work is faultless. Thanks Jimmy.read more

Sometimes having such good reviews makes you suspicious but in this case Jimmy lived up to the reviews and more. Took him my brand new Mazda 3 and it came out looking better than from the factory. He treats every car as equal and makes sure to explain how to maintain the ceramic coating going forward. He works alone so you know that he will be the one caring for your pride and joy. Thanks Jimmy.read more

Hello Jimmy, I wrote a review on your business earlier this year, and I really want to say I am sorry. I had failed to see the value in your work, and after seeing prices other detailers charge, along with the effort they put in, I truly regret my review. Thank you for ceramic coating my car Jimmy, and even though you won't know who I am, because it would be a bit awkward in the future haha, I hope your business thrives after these tough times. Once again, very sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused you, and I hope you are keep well. Thank you for understanding, Best wishesread more

Very impressed with Jimmy's services. Got a Ceramic Coating done for my CX5. Within a month of buying the vehicle, I noticed a lot of scratches from the automated car wash that the dealer did on first month inspection. When I first called him, he explained the whole process, for whom a ceramic coating would be apt and how the scratches needs to be removed first (otherwise they will become permanent) before the coating is applied. When I brought my car in, he kept the car for 1 full day. When I took the delivery he spent a good half an hour explaing what he did, how he did and how to keep the car shinning. I could see he spent and invested good amount of time on the car. I believe the price he quoted was fair and justified the service he gave. Jimmy is a perfect example of how a small and locally owned business that gives you personalise service and attention, which the big franchise and dealership lack of, could (and should) give them a run for their money. I will definitely recommend Jimmy.read more

Don’t even think about getting your car dealer to do the paint protection. I have had my last 4 cars done at the dealership until the last one which they did poorly. Called Jimmy (really nice and friendly guy) and he not only rectified what the dealer did but did a job that was far superior to any I have had done before. Trust is a big thing when handing over your valuable asset to a stranger, but please be assured you are in safe hands with Jimmy.read more

Jimmy did a great job with our Ford Ranger. I made a few calls before I chose Fine Shine. It was a great decision. He certainly knows his product and spent a fair amount of time explaining how I could correctly maintain the finish and products to use. The finish is great and water beads from the surface as described. Will review again in 12 months. Thanks you Jimmy and Fine Shine PP.read more

There’s not enough stars for Jimmy. Communication was exemplary, turnaround time was ridiculous, Jimmy sent me a photo of the contamination in my paint on a car days old. When I showed up the next day, the car looked incredible. The quality of the finish was insane and he took the time to walk me through how to care for the finish. If you are reading this, stop searching and comparing and get Jimmy on it. Do not haggle and do not say you can find it cheaper elsewhere - he’s already less than half the price of the dealers with a way better finish - pay what he asks and let him do the work, it’s worth it. It’s rare to find people passionate about what they do and about serving their customers but Jimmy hits both to the highest level. Thanks Jimmy.read more

Jimmy did an outstanding job to my new Alfa Romeo Giulia. The car looks better now than when I bought it new. The way Jimmy managed to get the black to pop was amazing.

He completely got rid of road tar, nicks, scratches and water-spotting and left my car looking a million bucks, and far easier to maintain.

I just added 2-layers of ceramic coat on my car with Jimmy. Even if the car is brand new, I saw some swirl marks here and there, but Jimmy polished and removed them. I took the package option which also covered the interior, glasses and wheels. Now I dont need much effort in washing the car, dust and dirt are easily removed, they simply don't stick to the paint or any other parts that are protected with the ceramic coat. I am very happy and satisfied with his Job. Surely he's done meticulous job on the car. I will recommend Jimmy to anyone who wants to protect your car and the ease of washing. Furthermore, the ceramic coat adds up gloss to the car. Thanks Jimmy for the great job!read more

I took my car to Jimmy because it is ten years old and was looking a bit tired. I saw the 5 star rating on Google and read the other reviews and booked in for a detail and ceramic coating. I got my car back today and I couldn't believe the difference. It looks amazing considering how it looked when I took it in. Jimmy is supremely honest and upfront, and took the time to talk me through what he was going to do, and told me how much it would cost. When I got the car back, the cost was exactly what Jimmy quoted, and he spent time with me to explain how to protect the finish once I get the car home. I can't recommend Jimmy and his workmanship enough and I would happily take my vehicles back to him. Thanks Jimmy!read more

I spoke to Jimmy over the phone about paint protection being applied to my recently purchased car and he was extremely knowledgeable and happy to answer all my questions. I called a few places for quotes and of all the people I spoke to, he was the only one who took the time to explain what he would need to do to the car and what paint protection could and couldn't do. I booked it in and Jimmy polished and applied paint protection to my baby, removing the fine swirl marks and scratches, and the end result was better than when I picked up the car new from the dealer. He gave great advice about how to care for the exterior paint and I am really pleased with the finish. Without a doubt I will be recommending Fine Shine Detailing to anyone who wants their car detailed and/or paint protection applied by a true professional. Thanks Jimmy!read more

I loved Jimmy's work so much I had to go back for the second time on another car. He's so careful and meticulous that you will not have any problem entrusting him with luxury cars of any price range. I have seen him coat a $400K+ 911 and that thing looks brand spanking new afterwards. Jimmy is such a great bloke he knew I needed the car on the same day so he didn't have lunch to finish it early!

Had my new Red Veloster SR Turbo paint protected today and was beyond amazed at how wonderful Jimmy was to me and my car! I live nearly 3 hours away from Melbourne so Jimmy made sure he finished my car in one day when it usually takes 2 days! Jimmy is extremely professional and friendly! And he gave me great tips and advice on cleaning and maintaining my car! Thanks again Jimmy....YOUR THE BEST!!!!!read more

Jimmy applied ceramic paint protection on my new car. The car now now truly looks like liquid metal! I am very happy, it looks too nice to be driving it; it should go into my living room. Dealing with Jimmy is a pleasure, polite bedside manners, no hassling, no upselling, work done well and in time at a competitive price. I recommend Jimmy and his work.read more

My Boyfriend got the exterior and interior package, coating the exterior with Ceramic Pro and Ceramic Pro Rain. With the interior getting a coating of the Ceramic Pro Leather and Fabric. The Ranger looked like a show car in the end. The shine of the paint popped with the car, working awesome in the rain. Still waiting to test out the interior but hoping not to. I would recommend any day of the week, the boyfriend decided to leave his coin stash in the car and nothing was taken, so confidence with the team who will be in your car.read more

What an experience! When my car was delivered to me from the dealership i thought it was great, but Jimmy's eye for detail on my new car was amazing. He took me over the car in the first 5 mins picking out all the damage to the paint sustained by the dealerships detailer. After one day of leaving it with Fine Shine my car looks amazing! Jimmy's customer service is top notch and he cares about he''s customers and the result they are looking to achieve.read more

Jimmy did a great job of correcting the dealer’s poor delivery detailing. Jimmy corrected a flat, contaminated and swirled paint work to a high gloss finish. Jimmy is also very helpful to guide you through which detailing process is required and also what is required to care for the car to maintain the finish.read more

Brought my brand new ‘17 Panamera e-Hybrid to Jimmy to have it fully creamic coated, exterior and interior. Car undoubtedly needed some polishing after the long journey from Germany to Porsche Melbourne. The meticulous care and attention to detail that Jimmy put in over the few days of the detailing course were totally impeccable. The end result is a finish that outshines even the cars found in Porsche’s marketing materials. Like those who discovered Fine Shine before me, my deepest appreciation and full respect goes to Jimmy. Outstanding work with unquestionable passion.read more

Jimmy has done a great job with the ceramic coating on my beemer 228i. Also got the interior leather protection done. Great products, knowledgeable staff, not too expensive and friendly service. Jimmy really knows his stuff and it clearly shows. Dirt and water washes off easily and the car remains sparkling for a long time. Driven through some bad weather recently...wiped the car with a damp cloth and vola....its shining like new again..took abt 10 mins...it was that easy. Highly recommended this place.read more

Hi All, what more can you say other than Jimmy has done at absolutely awesome job on my car. I took a while to find the right guy to do my paint protection, trust me I'm picky, but was blown away with Jimmy's knowledge, customer service and ultimately the end result, could not be happier and highly recommend Fine Shine to anyone who wants a fantastic result at a great price. Also, and unfortunately, I picked up some paint damage and a dent on my roof on the way to Jimmy's. That said and after some consoling from Jimmy, he had taken a picture of the damage, shot it off to a mate in the trade and organised a great repair, ie Jimmy goes the extra mile. You struggle to find quality and service this good these days, go Jimmy, Regards Adam.read more
