ORIDON Ceramic Paint Protection

We recommend washing your vehicle by hand with a clean sponge & dry with a chamois to avoid water etching. However, you can take your vehicle through a laser car wash - please avoid brush car washes.

Yes. For interior and exterior applications we require your vehicle to be freshly washed, cleaned and any imperfections on the vehicle such as stubborn marks or scratches would need to be rectified prior to the appointment. Do not use waxes, silicons & polishes.

Once ORIDON Ceramic Paint Protection has been applied there is no need to wax or polish. Wax or polish may damage the coating. Simply hand wash using a pH neutral car wash.

If your paint work has any evidence of fine scratching, swirl marks, water etching, stubborn markings (bird droppings / bat droppings / tree sap). Please ensure these issues are rectified prior to your appointment to ensure your application can proceed on the day.

ORIDON is a new generation Ceramic Paint Protection. Unlike traditional paint protection products which can break down over time, the combination of traditional and advanced ceramics in this formula deliver a coating that outlasts and out performs many other ceramic paint coatings. ORIDON Ceramic Paint Protection contains both Silicon Dioxide and Silicon Carbide. Silicon Dioxide creates gloss, shine and helps protects against environmental damage and UV, and Silicon Carbide creates hardness and durability. ORIDON is backed by the ORIDON limited lifetime warranty.

Maintenance is quick and easy. Simply hand wash the vehicle using the ORIDON carwash shampoo (or any pH neutral car wash) and chamois dry. We recommend always washing the vehicle in the shade when the metal is cool.

Nanotechnology, put simply, is the science of small. A nano sized particle = 1b metre! We engineer our coatings using nanotechnology.  What this means for you is a smoother surface and superior coverage.

Hydrophobic simply means a surface that repels water. Hydrophobic coatings are used globally on a wide range of surfaces including glass, stainless steel and even in medical applications (to coat surgical instruments). In simple terms when a surface has hydrophobic properties, water will tend to sheet or roll off the surface which can help take away dirt, dust, and grime. Maintenance is significantly reduced as the coating reduces the adhesion of contaminates making washing easier. Maximum performance is achieved once the ORIDON Ceramic Paint Protection is fully cured. This depends on exposure to UV which is the catalyst for the curing process and would usually take around 3 days after application.

Whilst our application centres have limited cleaning facilities, they will ensure your vehicle is in the correct condition prior to application.

ORIDON Ceramic Paint Protection is applied to the entire body of the vehicle. The ceramic formula chemically bonds to the paintwork and creates a durable long-lasting protective barrier against oxidisation and damage caused by a wide range of environmental contaminates (such as bird & bat droppings & tree sap). The Hydrophobic properties also create an easy-clean surface which significantly reduces maintenance time and cost.
PPF (Paint Protection Film) is a high-quality thermoplastic urethane film that can be installed over areas subject to potential minor damage. This includes door handle cups, door edges and boot edge. It can also be applied to the bonnet edge to help protect against stone chips.

Essentially, ceramic coatings will enhance the colour and shine of your paintwork. Visually, results will vary and this is dependent on the colour and type of paint. The coating takes around 3 days to fully cure. Once curing is completed, the coating will achieve maximum gloss and protection.

ORIDON Interior Coating

Fogging on interior glass is a common problem if a silicone-based product has been applied to leather or vinyl. This is caused by exposure to heat which causes the silicone to vaporise. This then causes a sticky, difficult to remove residue or fog on the glass. ORIDON Interior Surface Coating does not contain silicone and will not contribute to fogging on glass.

ORIDON interior protection is a water-based formula which contains no harmful solvents. 

ORIDON Interior Surface Coating will protect and preserve the natural beauty of leather. Powerful UV inhibitors prevent surface dehydration which can lead to cracking or splitting, and the coating prevents staining from common food drink spills, makeup and sunscreen. Unlike off-the-shelf products, no reapplication is required and maintenance is simple - just wipe over with a non-coloured damp cloth and pH neutral shampoo.

Our application centres are not certified to remove or re-install baby seats. This is required to be organised by you before and after the appointment.

Most off-the-shelf products are in fact maintenance products, not a permanent treatment. They are designed to be applied and then reapplied after repeated use and/or cleaning. These products usually offer limited short term protection. ORIDON is a permanent sealer that bonds with the surface and requires no reapplication for the lifetime of ownership of the vehicle.

PPF

Yes! The DIY PPF kit comes with step-by-step instructions and you will be provided with all the tools necessary to complete the application at home.

You can apply heat to the scratch with a hair dryer

A tough, durable and clear film barrier that acts like body armour for your paint. It’s an invisible layer that helps to protect your vehicle’s painted surfaces against chips, scratches and harmful environmental contaminants like road tar, bug splatter or bird droppings.

Window Tint

The industry standard for measuring how dark your window tint is, is known as Visual Light Transmission (VLT). We will be applying the darkest legal tint to your vehicle. The darkest legal limit in all Australian states (exc. NT) is 20% VLT on all rear windows and 35% VLT on all front windows. In the NT the legal limit is 15% VLT on all rear windows and 35% VLT on all front windows. Due to this, your front and rear windows will slightly differ in appearance. No tint is permitted on the windscreen, sunroof or moonroof.

Use a good quality cloth or chamois and warm water. Window cleaners can be used, provided the cleaning agent does not contain any ammonia. Ammonia in the cleaner will burn the tint and can leave a permanent streak.

No, ORIDON offer the option to tint the bottom half of all Tesla Model 3 rear screens. The concierge will discuss this with you to determine your preference prior to your booking, you can however contact our concierge using our easy to use contact form or call the ORIDON concierge on 1300 ORIDON for information on this prior to your purchase

Legally, window tint cannot be applied to the windscreen, however, windscreens on all new vehicles are made from laminated glass. Laminated glass delivers very high UV protection, blocking out majority of both UVA and UVB rays.

No, we do not apply tint to the sunroof or the moonroof.

No, the Dash Camera records all videos to its own MicroSD card. Your phone simply allows you to save copies from the camera for safe keeping.

You can expect a standard installation completed by an ORIDON centre to take up to 1.5 hours.

You can customise the spoken phrases from the camera by using the App, See Firmware Settings - System - Voice Guidance.

Event videos flag any shock/impacts whilst driving, sometimes these can also be due to potholes, bumps in the road, hard accelerating or braking. You can adjust the sensitivity from within the App (under Sensitivity - G-Sensor - Normal Mode).

You may get 'False-Positives' from other shocks to the vehicle, such as closing a car door with force or a hatch/boot. You can adjust the sensitivity from the BlackVue App.

Dash Cameras can record at night and low-light situations. While the camera will not be able to see in pitch black conditions - they are excellent when lighting is less than perfect.

When hardwired (our standard installation option) we use safeguards such as Low Battery Protection, Timer cut-offs and voltage minimums to keep you and your vehicle protected.

No it will not. When installed by ORIDON, ORIDON warrants both the product and the installation.

Cable

No. However please feel free to contact our concierge using our easy to use contact form or call the ORIDON concierge on 1300 ORIDON to discuss.

Absolutely, at the time of distribution you will be sent tracking details via email/sms. Should you not receive this information, please contact our concierge using our easy to use contact form or call the ORIDON concierge on 1300 ORIDON.

Yes, it does, however not all electric vehicles support up to 22KW charging. Refer to your vehicle specifications to determine if your car will accept up to 22KW.

Yes it does. The Tesla Model 3 and Model Y AC charger is a Type 2 connector, often called Mennekes after its German manufacturer. Type 2 connectors can charge up to 22KW and are the most used AC connector in the world.

All EVs sold in Australia and New Zealand use the Mennekes connection known as the Type 2 to Type 2 cable.

Please contact our concierge using our easy to use contact form or call the ORIDON concierge on 1300 ORIDON.

Yes it is however not all electric vehicles support up to 22KW charging. Refer to your vehicle specifications in order to determine if your car will accept up to 22KW.

You will receive a 5-metre heavy-duty 3 phase EV charging cable (rated up to 22KW), fastened by a velcro carry handle for easy handling. Stored in a strong Oxford cloth bag including a cleaning cloth and instructions. The cable will arrive to you ready for use.

One kilowatt (KW) is simply 1,000 watts. Kilowatts is the measurement of energy used for electric car chargers, typically 7KW, 22KW, 50KW, 350KW and so on. In other words, it’s the rate at which power is transferred from a charging station into your EV.

A portable charger provides charging through a standard power point (three-prong) 240V plug that may come with your EV. The other end is simply plugged directly into your EV. The cable does not require installation of additional charging equipment. It can deliver 13 to 16km of range per hour of charging. By carrying an additional 22KW cable you can choose to install a home charger and use public chargers which may require you to supply your own Type 2 cable (shopping centre, car park, at work, hotel). Purchasing both ensures that all your charging needs are covered.

The bag keeps your cable safely secured and neatly stored away. The rectangle bag makes it easy to coil the cable into. It has a rubber backing to prevent it sliding around on your boot carpet.

The difference between a 7KW and 22KW EV charger is the rate at which they charge the battery. A 7KW charger will charge the battery at 7KW per hour, while a 22KW charger will charge the battery at 22KW per hour. The faster charge time of the 22KW charger is due to the higher power output.

ORIDON provide a 5 year warranty against defects subject to terms and conditions.

PHEVs will never charge at 22KW, usually maxing out at 3.7KW. This is due to the battery cell in hybrid vehicles being relatively small. If it took in a charge at a speed any higher, it would overheat the battery and render it unusable long term.
